Hiya Jeff,

Sorry you have to be here...but, it is the place to be if you have ch.

Can you tell us a little more about yourself? What meds you use, how often and long your cycles are? What abortives you use? You may have some info that would help us.

PFDAN,
Tracey

Well to start with I'am 36 years old. Right now I'am taking Imitrex (the shots). My CH last 1 to 1 1/2 hours. They start out as 1 a day for a week then go to 2 a day, then peak at 3 a day then they cycle down at the same rate. The last time I had them was in 1999, I thought they were gone. I also take Verapamil, I don't believe they are working.
