MATTHEW PERRY’S GIRLFRIEND ASKS FOR INVESTIGATION OF THE DOCTORS
Matthew Perry’s ex-girlfriend, Kayti Edwards, has called out for investigations against Perry’s doctors. She suggested that this might have been a gateway for him to return to drug usage.
While speaking to The U.S. Sun, Edwards said, “I’m pretty sure that in Matthew’s brain, ketamine infusions at a doctor’s would count as still being sober. In his brain, it’s not the same as going on the street to buy crack or heroin.”
She further added, “That probably was the stepping stone for him to go back to doing drugs. I think the doctors who had been working with Matthew should be investigated. I’m pretty sure he would have had an in with a doctor.”
The toxicology report revealed that the actor passed away due to ‘acute effects of ketamine’. Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic used for treating depression. The actor has been said to have undergone ketamine infusion therapy to treat anxiety and depression before his death.
On December 17, Sunday, a close friend of the deceased actor stated to The Daily Mail that Perry “lied to everyone about being clean.”
