Post by UN solved on Jul 3^rd, 2007, 3:46pm

Yes !! ;;D I'm getting relief now thanks to another Medrol Dose Pak. I hate doing these drugs, but I hate to suffer through cluster attacks worse !!

Hope you all are having a good day !!

I don't know what a Medrol Dose Pak is but I am sure glad it is working for you.

Anything that fights the beast is fantastic news

Medrol Dose Pak always stops my attacks dead in thier tracks, with the first dose. Trouble is they come back when I get to the 3 or 2 pill day. It does give me a few nights rest though.

A Medrol Dose Pak is a 6 day steroid taper pack. It's "MethylPrednisolone". (Kind of like Prednisone)

Exactly Bob ! It'll give me a few days to re-coop and then the attacks will re-start (Just like you described) !! I'm going to try and enjoy the pain free time while I can. At least maybe I'll get to enjoy the 4th of July holiday without the real BANG !!
