[quote=wildflowerchild25;4906787]I'm all set up to start treatment, it's up to me to m. She mentioned ketamine infusions but I don't feel like there's been enough research on that off label use of ketamine yet. That scares me.

Ha! My dr. right now is one of the ketamine pioneers. They are currently doing research here on doing ketamine on alternating days with ECT. When ECT was on the table for me my pdoc said she was not yet recommending that trial because she thinks it is too much to go through.

I have been in here twice with someone who has done ketamine. Not sure how much it has done for her and she's been doing it for years.
