Title: axert
Post by mdsmith on May 21^st, 2002, 2:21pm

i had chronic ch's for for five years. my last chronic lasted approx six months with no let up. i tried everything everyone suggests on this site and found a drug that broke my cycle... axert. before anyone gets negative on a migraine drug i suggest to try this. it completely broke my cycle within three - four weeks with immediate relief for 24 hours after taking one dose. i tapered off the medicine and am med free as of today.

i posted this drug on here before and was surpirsed that all of the 'know it alls' on here got negative and suggested it couldn't work for their all mighty ch. i don't care what function of the body it attaches it self to or how it works ... for me ... it worked. rather than contemplate or take lithium, prednisone, or mushrooms for that matter ... try this ... and for those of you who have not tried this. don't share your negative comments with legit people who are looking for a fix.

for those of you who do try this ... merry christmas ... it's the best i can do for you. and ... for those or you who are negative and are suffering ... ha ha ... i feel FANTASTIC !!!

I don't know about Axert and what negatives you got before but I'll start one now:

You, sir, sound like a complete not a very nice person!

"for those of you who are negative and suffering ... ha ha".

I've changed my mind. You are a fucking prick!

PS - did you know this site changes a-s-s-h-o-l-e to "not a very nice person".

Now that cracks me up!

BTW - a 6 month cluster doesn't make you chronic.

I agree with Bob_P, you are, Mr. mdsmith, an ass-hole and a fucking prick !

And furthermore, you cant read and have not the slightest idea of clusterheadaches, neither theoretically nor practically.

What sort of CH is "my last chronic lasted approx six months with no let up" ???
The meaning of chronic is: regular cluster attacks for at least one year (with no pain free period of two weeks or more).
A headache that lasts six month with no let up is not clusterheadache, neither chronic, nor episodic.

Despite your patronizing attitude, you don't tell us anything new. We all know that the Triptans were developed for migraines, but are useful for treating CH too.
It is a well know fact too, that longer acting Triptans, like Almotriptan malate (Axert/Almogran) or Naratriptan HCl (Amerge/Naramig), are useful as short time preventatives for some (but not for all).
However, I still have to hear from a reliable source that any Triptan can terminate an episode, not only a single attack. But this would be surprising anyway, since the Triptans treat the symptoms of cluster (the attacks), not the underlying disturbances of the brain chemistry.

Good for you that you found something to treat your meegraines, or whatever your headaches are.
That you have no idea of CH and never suffered a cluster attack is obvious from the following:
on March, 7 you wrote: "Axert gave me relief within one hour"
today you write: "...with immediate relief after taking one dose"
Where is the clusterhead for whom "one hour" and "immediate" are synonyms when it comes to aborting an attack? ? ?

To use another quote from your first post:
Take your AXERT and get off this site forever !!!

Hey Smith-

WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE TO LAUGH AT ANYONE WHO IS SUFFERING FROM THIS?

If you really had CH, you wouldn't, and from what Ueli has just laid in the table, you probably don't.

Another point: there are quite a few "know it alls" on this site for which the shroom therapy actually works. Maybe if you would actually read some of the posts, you would have learned this from us "know it alls".

I've never gotten into to it with anyone here, but I've also never seen anyone who could have the nuts to fucking LAUGH at people suffering through this. Have you walked a mile in their shoes? Do you know what they've been through?
