Hi Noni,
Actually, several people on the board have tried it with varying degrees of success, which usually comes at fairly high doses. I took it once for a different problem - only gave me severe diarhea.
Things are quiet this weekend because of convention, but hopefully someone will come along who can share a cluster related story about this particular drug.
Meantime ... nothing tried, nothing gained.
Hugs,
Kris

I tried neurontin and had no luck with it except it made my hair start to fall out. But we are all different and it is worth a shot to try it. Good luck.

My ha has elements of ch & elements of cph. I'm on an a slowly escalating schedule of neurontin, Indocin, kudzu, and as needed maxalt melt & Red Bull. It is starting to make a difference in how I feel, but it may not be effective for someone else.

I am also on Neurontin and verapamil. I don't know which is causing it but the constipation is awful.
