Well, I'm not sure but I do hope this med works out for you. We all wish you well!

> I've been thinking of calling my pdoc's office, because all i've read about is how "low dose ketamine" helps with depression. doses at around 0.5mgs per kg of body weight, or even lower. but my doc prescribed 100 to 200 mgs of the nasal spray, and all it does is make me dizzy and knock me out at when i take it before bed. and he prescribed it to be taken every night and then i have another appointment with him in about a week.

No night so long that you can't find the day;
no day so wrong that you can't find your way.
