Fibromyalgia: How it Responds to Ketamine
Fibromyalgia affects approximately 8 million people in the United States. Fibromyalgia patients often report concurrent chronic fatigue, depression, irritable bowel syndrome and chronic headaches. Finding fibromyalgia treatment can be difficult given the nature of the disorder, but it’s gotten much easier for patients at Restorative Health.
Ketamine is one such medication that can help treat fibromyalgia through its mechanism of NMDA receptor inhibition. There are many NMDA receptors on neurons outside of the brain which help conduct pain stimulus to the brain. Although ketamine's function inside the brain becomes a very complex topic, its mechanism outside the brain is a popular model that is easy to understand because Ketamine is more or less blocking pain transmission through the spinal cord.
At Restorative Health we use a multiple-infusion approach to give fibromyalgia patients the best chance at pain remission.
