Title: New to the Message Board
Post by davidj35 on Jan 26^th, 2005, 12:56pm

This is my second post but my first in the New Member section. I have been on and off checking this site for years but I am not much of a joiner. I just want to say how much help the site has been to me over the past 6 to 7 years. It is here that I learned about O2. trex etc. I went through 2 + years of misdiagnoses and Dr's thinking I was crazy. I went through the usual routine you most of us have been through (MRIs, allergest, ENTs, etc:) till finaly being told that I was a clusterhead. I had cycled out for over two years and thought I was done with them, but now I am in my second cycle in the last six months. I am doing O2 and Imitrex pills (different post I made yesterday) and I am curious as to what has been working well for others. Thanks for being here and all of the support I see on these boards.

Welcome to the board, David

Good deal with the 02....the trex injections work alot faster than the pills.

I have only the nightime hits...I have used Melatonin and had good results. Melatonin is cheap and sold OTC.

Good luck with this round....Sorry you're suffering!

PF vibes,

Jean

Thank you. I keep hearing about Melatonin. I get chs throught the afternoon and usually 1 to 2 in the wee hours of the morning (between 1am and 3am). How much do you take, what time do you take it, etc? I would love to try it, if only not to get woken up and start sucking O2 at 2AM. PF vibes to you also Jean.
