What SEEMS to be working for me.....

Hi,
Back on Nov. 25th, I posted a message if anyone has had any luck with Magnesium.... Well, since then, this is what seems to be working for me, and if could help anyone else out there, well it would really be worth it!!
Let me tell you, that prior to starting this, I was eating Zomig, Imitrex like candy.... O2 worked once in awhile, but had to use it like every 2-3 hrs.
I had been taking Verapamil(480mg a day), and stopped Topomax, because it didn't seem to be doing anything,, and the side effects really do SUCK.
Anyway, here's what I am doing, and within 3 days, coincidence or not I do not know yet, but I HAVE NOT HAD A CH SINCE  (maybe a little one (Kip 1or2)after a night of drinking...something I hadn't been able to do in quite some time)
In the AM: 160mg of Verapamil, and 1 250mg of Magnesium
1/2 hr before bed: 1 3mg tab of Melatonin and 1 250 mg Magnesium.
This is the LONGEST in 3 years w/o at least 2 CH's a day..
Good luck if anyone else tries this, I hope it works for you.....
Mark

Hope it continues to work for you, last year, I did 3-12mg of melatonin 45 min before bed, 20mg of prozac and 250mg of magnesium in the morning.

I've been taking a magnesium tab with my vitamins every morning. I am well past due for my cluster.
Could be the magnesium.
Could be getting old.
Could be the 4 doses of shrooms tried last cluster.
Who knows?????
