Low dose ketamine is also a good adjunctive to pain meds.
I know someone who has chronic pain whose pain meds were not working. It actually caused normal pain to be worse. There is a medical term /condition to describe this condition. Ketamine therapy/ infusion reset the situation. I am very glad they received benefit from it. I don’t think they were able to walk away from the pain meds but that’s a different issue Physical dependence on a medication cannot be undone that quickly for those meds. Pain meds take a long term to ween off or a very quick but risky quick cold turkey approach.
