Ozzy Osbourne feared he would get hooked on Ketamine after being put on controversial medical treatment
METAL legend Ozzy Osbourne feared he would get hooked on ketamine after doctors tried to treat him with it.
And the ex-hellraiser, 75, refused to use it again after one session.
Wife Sharon, 71, was given the anaesthetic drug when she was treated for severe anxiety last year.
Ozzy — a recovering drug and drink addict — said his doctor told him it would help with his therapy, but he added: “As soon as it went into my system, I said, ‘F*** this’.
“I got that little devil. I was like, ‘No way’.
“It was a minute micro-dose but I knew it. I was like, ‘No, that’s enough for me’.”
Despite having Parkinson’s and recovering from several spinal surgeries, ex-Black Sabbath singer Ozzy is determined to play some gigs this year.
He has not performed for five years, which is “driving me f***ing crazy”.
Ozzy said: “I am going to try my hardest to do a few gigs. I need to.”
His last full concert was on New Year’s Eve in 2018.
The following year Ozzy suffered a nasty fall while at home – aggravating injuries from a near-fatal quad bike crash in 2003.
