Title: Just love the world of Pharmacology!
Post by mynm156 on Sep 22^nd, 2004, 4:25pm

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to say that Thanks to my current list of drugs: Lopressor, Zomig, Verapamil, Stadol and last but not least.. Zonegran ( a cousin of Topamax)

Well I have been recently diagnosed os Chronic and was having the 3-4 days a week any where from 3-6 clusters a day on those days. With almost constant shadows.
Well Thanks to SUPERPAIN I have gone to a new Neuro and he has upped the meds and really seems to have his shit together about clusters. So now I am down to 2-3 days a week with 2-3 clusters a day. The Terrible shadows I seemed to live in perpetually have really calmed down also.

However, (Nofault of SUPERPAINS) The recent lower abdominal pain that I have been having over the last three days that wouldnt go away turned out to be THREE kidney stones which just happen to be a side effect of the ZONEGRAN!!!! Isnt that just GRAND! This really sucks and I just cant wait to be trying to pass one of these little GEMS and get hit right then and there with a cluster. hsahahahahahah

Has anyone else had this happen to them I mean the development of the Kidney stones.

Good Vibes my brothers and sisters in pain!!!!

WOW - pissing out a peanut in the middle of a cluster :o
thats a whole new level of pain.

(or if it does the pain from each cancel themselves out)

Look on the bright side... at least if they knock you out you won't have a headache!
... and if they don't well.. the pain in your head will probably not seem quite so bad!
Hope you feel better soon

Suction?

They'll probably just blast them to bits using a laser.

I have found success with Zonegran as well.

Fortunately, I've not had any problems with kidney stones!

I hope all comes out easily and quickly!
