Prodigal DaveW Returns...

Hi Group,
 
I've been pain-free for a little over 18 months, but they're back.  Kinda mild this time (KIP 4 to 5), but very regular, 3 times a day.
 
I am already on Verapamil, 960 mg/day, and I have a stockpile of Imitrex nasal sprays plus a bottle of oxygen for work and one for home.
 
I'm thinking of giving the Kudzu a try, will let y'all know how it works for me.  
 
Mostly I just wanted to say "hi, old friends" and thank everyone for keeping the good info flowing.
 
PFD's all,

Sorry your back in cycle, glad your back on the board. I had to give up on the nasal imitrex cuz it made my barf and didn't stop the head ache. Got over my fear of needles and have become a fan of imitrex when the oxygen fails me. Hoping it's a short cycle for you!

Howdy Dave!
Sorry to hear about the cycle starting up again. Give the kudzu a shot, it might just be the ticket.

Thanks all!  And yes, Kevin, that was me on the porch in Nashville.  Good to hear from you.  Send me a note and fill me in on how you're doing sometime.
 
Early results on the Kudzu are promising.  No attach last night (after 2 doses), first time in several weeks.  Missed this morning's headache too.  Right now I have about a KIP 2 going on,  2 hours ahead of schedule but really mild...
 
Clusterheads ROCK!!!  I shouldn't have stayed away so long.
 
Hugs & PFD's to all,
