Title: Imitris shots
Post by tannero on May 19^th, 2003, 3:50pm

I am going on 28 days that I have had to take an injection or two almost every day. The imitrix tip saved my ass on this. My doc says I shouldn't continue, year right, like I got a choice. Is there anyone else taking these shots as frequently and are there any side effects I should watch for.

I was using imitrix ns exsesive daily for a couple of years (Am chronic). I found out that the severe anxiety/panic attacks I was having were from my increased imitrix use. I quit using imitrix and I stopped having axiety attacks. I explained this to my dr and he said it all made sense to him.

I use at least one injection daily, and have been known to use up to 8 in a day. Just all depends on how the head is behaving. I do split my vials into thirds though.

I've been doing this for almost 4 mths now (ever since I got the script), and have noticed no side effects at all.

I wouldn't worry about it. I use em as I need em and then get more. Side affects of daily life with CH are worse than any side affects the imitrex could give me.

Except for that one time.............
