Still alive.

The pred stopped and so did the relief, so I finally agreed to try the Lithium. So, I'm on my second week of Lithium + Verapamil. Maybe I'm crazy, but this seems to be working. I'm having only shadows now and a few very short cluster headaches (like 5 minutes), and the occasional migraine but hose are easy to deal with.

I've been off work on medical disability, but if things keep looking good I'll go back to work next week.

I'm kind of wishing I had tried the Lithium months ago. I had a near meltdown going through this shit. I'm not 100% yet, but I think I'm headed there.

Oh, and as fate would have it... the day I started the Lithium was the same day the OUCH Healing Doll arrived at my house. I wonder if it's the lithium or the doll?
