Title: I think I pissed off the sinus busters.
Post by JeffB on Jan 12th, 2007, 6:03pm
I contacted them to inquire about the validity of their product regarding relief for clusterheadaches. Here's the response I received.

Hey Jeff,

The unfortunate part of our business is that we understand that we will not be able to help every person who suffers from a cluster headache. We can however come to work without shame knowing there there is a high pecentage of people who we can help. We know this because they write in and thank us for saving their lives almost daily. That is why we we don't let folks like you get us down with negative, slanderous and unnecessarily rude emails like the one you have so eloquently provided. I'm willing to bet you haven't even tried the product. If you purchased our product and found it to be "crap", you would be asking for a refund instead of bitching at me. If you are a cluster headache sufferer and you haven't tried it, well, shame on you for not exploring the possibility. Either way it doesn't shed a very bright light on your intelligence--good luck with that.
;;D ;;D ;;D ;;D ;;D

Don't let it upset you.  Just figure who it was coming from...

I hear Flonase is a damn good cluster headache treatment too.  

Lots of sufferers got a cluster headache once, tried that product and never had a cluster headache again.  Its like a miracle.

After reading this thread and becoming appropriately pissed off I went to Sinus Busters site via Google cache and then sent them this note:


Quote:
I suffer from Cluster Headaches. Your website claims "With just one small dose used 3 times daily for several weeks, this formula appears to be effective in preventing a variety of headaches including migraines, clusters, menstrual, and sinus." How do you mean appears to be effective? Were there any clinical studies of this product on any cluster headache sufferers? Do yo publish those results? May I see them?



I'm curious to see what their response shall be... I'll keep you posted if you're interested.

with warm regards,
Tony

Hey Jeff,

Can you provide us with a copy of the letter you sent to them?  I would be curious to see why they got so bent out of shape.  I imagine your letter was completely business like and not at all facetious or smart assed.

Well they finally responded:

Hi Anthony,
We say "appears" to be effective only for legal reasons because we don't have any clinicals for cluster headaches, but we do have thousands of customers who swear by it for cluster headaches. I am one of those success stories. Sinus Buster has been a life saver for me. I have suffered from cluster headaches for over twenty years, and once I discovered Sinus Buster - I never had another full blown attack.

We are putting together a study with one university to specifically focus on cluster patients. You really should give it a try because it works for almost everyone that uses it, and we have a full money back guarantee. I will add that for my clusters, the original squeeze bottle works best because if you're caught in the middle of a full blown attack, you may have to really squirt a good amount the first few times you use it. then after you use it for a while, you need far less too be effective. There are no rebounds, and the more you use it - the more effective it is. Good luck to you. Clusters are horrible headaches.

Sounds wonderful.....
Hmmmmmmmmm.

I have never heard ANYONE say this worked for them.

Are there any people that aren't employed by them that could give a positive review?

It sure is funny that the one employee that responds just happens to have CH's. I wonder if ALL their employees have CH's. LMAO  ::)

Title: A little Math
Post by AlienSpaceGuy on Jan 15th, 2007, 11:53pm
A little Math

Let's assume there are 300'000 clusterheads in the US ( 1/1000 of the population ).

This MB has 6234 members, a fraction of 0.021 (2.1%) of all clusterheads.

Sinusbusters "do have thousands of customers who swear by it for cluster headaches"; let's assume this number is 3000. That would be a fraction of 0.01 (1%) of all clusterheads.

Therefore, we can expect 62 CH.com members (1% of the whole lot) "who swear by Sinusbusters for cluster headaches". And a very selfish bunch are these 64, they found a "cure" and are withholding it from the rest of us. :(

Or could it be the Sinusbusters' numbers are only wishful thinking and exaggerated by a factor of a few thousand?
- You decide. ;;D
