Title: How do you deal?
Post by CJohnson on Mar 17^th, 2003, 9:36am

Has there been a topic presented where everyone just chimed in with what they take/do to prevent/abort their CH? If so, could someone post a link? I'm sure I could sift through the archives and glean the information, but it would be great to just be able to go down a list and see what everybody does. Here is what I do:
1. Amerge and Fioricet in the morning and before bed.
2. Vigorous exercise, cold nasal spray (water), deep breathing outside, and drinking plenty of water to abort an attack.

I have tried everything known to man. All have failed me. I now take methadone to stop the pain from comming through. I have been pain free almost 6 months. I also take imitrix ns for breakthrough ha.

You should be able to get a good feel for what people take by reading the medications section of this board.

I started a thread about that awhile back (dont recall when) and the thread was huge, wanted newbies to be able to see what works for many and how nothing works for everyone.
