I’ve had cluster headaches for almost 17 years. My last cycle started in October of 2000 and has just ended. Sunday will make it 4 weeks that I’ve been pain free. I’m no longer “chronic”!! Thanks to Histamine desensitization & The Diamond Headache Clinic … I no longer fear sleep and I can now get back to my life UNsolved

Glad to hear it. I am impressed with the Diamond Headache Clinic... I spoke with a doc there before but didn't pursue getting treatment due to location. I'm so happy for u.....

| It takes 11 days in the hospital to complete the Histamine drip therapy. You're given 2 IV bags of Histamine per day until you finish 21 bags. I had to repeat the therapy several times before it made me completely pain free, but it paid off. I wish I would've done it a loooong time ago! Thanks everyone ! PF Wishes to all, Michael

Michael, nothing could make me happier than seeing the Imitrex producers lose one of their best ever customers! LOL I can't think of anyone who deserves the relief more. May it last, and last, and last .... Hugs, Kris
