oxygen and imitrex

Hey all
So I got my O2, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. I feel like the freak of the litter cause so many people here have success with it.
I also got imitrex injections (finally...all i've had to far is pill form)....it seems to be working much better.
Thanks everyone for your help!

Do you have the right mask? Has to be the non-rebreather one... and a flow rate at least 8 lpm. I usually have to give until the pain is gone... plus another five minutes. And though it works for most of my attacks, it doesn't for the Kip-10+ ones.

Amber,
Sorry to hear you didn't get any relief from the o2, it's been a life saver for me.
Frank mentioned the non-rebreather mask, is that what they gave you? Also, how many LPM's are you using?
I've never used the Imitrex tabs but I have used the nasal and the injections and to me there's no comparison, the injections work much faster.
pfdan's to you,
Jim
