Title: Some Success
Post by barbee on Feb 26^th, 2003, 8:16pm

:)I have had some success with Atacand. It is actually a blood pressure drug, and I do not have a blood pressure problem. However, studies were done and it was found to be effective for some headaches, so, because nothing else works for me, I tried it.

I have had quite a few pfdan since taking it. Sometimes the Beast makes a grand entrance, and I run for the Zomig or Amerge before pounding my head with a book. But it's wonderful to have a few free nights!

:)Thanks ...I've been chronic for the past 12 years. So this is a whole new world, where you don't always wake up screaming.

Hay barbee. been chronic for ten years. the best thing that worked for me is going in the hospital and geting demeral shots for three days. it's stops them every time. don't know why. it just dose. if it don't work for you i know you will get three days of sleep. sleep it's a hard thing for us to get so the more sleep you get the better you should feel. hope you get better. ps demeral kicks the shit out of the demon
