Stopping the attacks !!

I can't bring myself to say that I'm one of the lucky ones... cause I am chronic and have been for over 6 years now... but I can say that I can stop the beast in his tracks at any time I need to. (Even if only temporarly).  
 
Drugs and treatments that are effective at stopping the attacks for me are:
 
DHE infusions
Solu Medrol infusions or high doses of steroids in general
Histamine Desensitization Therapy
 
I just recently threw all of these at the beast again. I've been in the hospital for 12 days ... just got out yesterday. The attacks stopped immediately and have yet to restart.
 
Here's to hoping I get another LONG break !!  Grin  bow
 
Goodluck all ~

Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are
Wake me up when September ends

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.
