I was at the doctor's office when I experience a hit. He injected my head with Lidocaine (same family) it didn't do anything. Maybe you'll have better luck.

I tried the lidocaine nasal drops. Didn't help the ch. Are you using a non-rebreather mask? clustermasx? How about preventaives like verapamil? Usually pred is given as a taper until the preventaive-verap, lithium...kicks in.

I have some experince with these treatments.
GLOA is used primarily in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. A needle is introduced through the front of the neck and drugs are injected into the site.
It is a “barbaric” preventive. The anesthesiologist performig the GLOA therapy and the Stellatum blockade used Bupivakain / Buprenorphine
I have posted more than one thread about it.....
