Title: Thank you Red Bull
Post by mzrolwes on Jun 10th, 2006, 9:17am
After readin several posts yesterday I saw all the talk of red bull. I tried that last night and it worked!

That alone makes my visit here worth while!

Although my husband was talking on the phone to his brother about getting a red bull for me and was saying, "Oh yeah, when I get one I take two excedrin migraine and a coke and it goes away. Its the caffeine blah blah blah."

UH NO! you don't  get clusters my friend. You get migraines. NOT the same. sigh. He's been with me thru 2 sets of clusters, so he should know by now that they are NOT the same, but maybe he's just forgotten how bad they get in the middle of the cycle. Still it makes me feel a little like back handing him. CH is NOT a migraine.

I also tried an energy drink yesterday and it worked for me , it's the Taurine I believe. I also took 9mg of melatonin before I went to bed and did not get the beast last night: D I'm only into day 6 of my cycle, so we'll see how it works for the rest of the month..

You guys are the best.

I told Sean (the bf) about the red bull after reading this yesterday.  It aborted his 7pm headache and the 3am one never showed.  He also took 6mg of melatonin before bed.

We were very excited this mornign.
