Re:As for Ketamine... (Score 1)

Ketamine is also used sometimes to treat rsd/crps (reflex sympathetic dystrophy / chronic regional pain syndrome). It's not effective for everyone (nothing is for this nasty condition) but has helped some people. A quick google shows that Aetna considers it experimental for treating rsd/crps. I'm lucky; every few years a different part of my body is affected, but the pain subsides over six months to a year or so. I'd do anything - including experimental medication - to avoid the next round.
