DHE subcutaneous

First time using DHE and we are doing it at home sub-cutaneously, at a rate of 0.7ml per hour 24 hours a day infusion X 4 days with 21 ml sodium chloride and 3ml DHE per day.  This is being done at home with a RN through a home health agency.  Started this Saturday, had one mild attack about an hour after beginning and then the eye would burn and tear for 5 minutes of so then go away twice.  We are assuming this would have been an attack?  No other real symptoms, no burning during infusion, no nausea, most of all, no attacks.
 
Has anyone else done therapy this way?  results?
Thanks for all the support!

Wonderful news!
 
I've had DHE by IV and had a good break of about 3 months.
 
Long may it last.
