Tuesday, July 01, 2008 at 08:33 AMHi Shannon!
I am so happy to hear Dr. Krusz is helping you. He is such a wonderful doctor. Are you also using the ketamine nasal spray as well?
I wish you much continued success. You have a wonderful doctor who thinks greatly of having his patients be a big part of their healthcare team.

Thursday, July 03, 2008 at 10:49 AMI am so glad to hear that the Ketamine is helping. Do you know the dosage that you are receiving and how often? I have tried almost everything with very little results. Thanks for your help. Best wishes.

Thursday, July 03, 2008 at 01:29 PMI can't speak for Shannon on her Ketamine dosage, but, from the week I spent observing in Dr. K's clinic, I can tell you that the dosage can vary depending on the status of the patient.
I'm working on a full article about the use of Ketamine. It should be up in the next week or so.
Not many doctors are using it yet, but there was a great deal of interest on the part of other doctors at the conference.

Thursday, July 03, 2008 at 02:40 PMI can't wait for the article. My dr mentioned something about this Monday during my visit. It is something both of us are more interested in. He said he was going to do further research. He always has articles printed for me when I go in.

Your doc sounds great!
Did he attend the American Headache Society conference? If not, he may be interested in the article I'm working on. I'll be posting two research posters on Keatmine that Dr. K. presented at the conference.

Friday, July 04, 2008 at 12:10 AMNo - he did not attend the conference. But like I said, he does a lot of research and shares a lot of it with me. He says I am the most organized patient he has ever had.

I have only been seeing him for 6 months, but I think he is the best one I've had so far and my search may be over - thank goodness!! I can't wait to check out the article.
Happy 4th!!

Thursday, July 03, 2008 at 03:33 PMI do know the dosages I am receiving, but not sure I should be giving that information out. It is my understanding that the way people react to Ketamine varies greatly and what works for me may not work for anyone else. Only Dr. Krusz can make that determination for you... Sorry I didn't have the answer you wanted just don't want to

Thursday, July 03, 2008 at 06:57 PMI have never heard of this drug being used for this until now. Any information that I could pass along to my doctors would have been helpful. Good luck.

I'm so glad you're regaining hope. I remember all too well what's it's like to feel that there is no hope, and it's the worst feeling. I can promise you two things...
1) There IS hope.
2) You are not alone in this.
Best,
Teri

When I get our article done and published on this site, it will have links to a couple of Dr. K.'s research posters on ketamine. Both the article and posters should be good resources for your doctor.
