I would like to know what exactly ketomine is used for? My pain dr has recommended me to a clinic. I have multiple pain issues but they are somewhat manageable at this time. I have bone on bone arthritis in my right hip and left knee as well as central disk bulge in both L4- 5 and L5-S1. I also have arthritis in my neck and tendinitis in my right arm. I have neuropathy caused by a trapped saphenous nerve in my right leg.
Now that I’ve typed it all in I guess I do have a lot! Anyway, I’m wondering if ketamine is actually for pain or is it more used for depression. I am on 20 mg of Paxil for that and feel that I am doing fine. Also the administration of ketamine kind of scares me because I was told from the clinic that they give infusions And that it takes 3 hours. Would appreciate any comments on this. Thank you!
