I believe the quote I read from someone who knows him was something like "He microdoses ketamine daily, and macrodoses at parties"

I wonder if he pisses his pants yet? He must have K bladder by now, unless there is some super rich people secret to avoid it.

Wow, because of your comment I've googled ketamine bladder and now I can't consider K as a relatively safe drug anymore.

20 - 90 % of users got irreversible urinal tract ulceration and significantly reduced functional bladder capacity.

That study is really light on information. I'd love to see more useful data if anyone has seen it. Like 20% of people who ever tried it ended up with ulceration? I know that's not what it's implying but that's preposterous. We get one guy who started having problems after 3 years of use. He used ketamine for another two years and ended up with serious issues. That's crazy, but where was he on the scale of once a week to Matthew Perry?
