Title: Bring it on, sucka!
Post by Hound_Dogg on Aug 18^th, 2003, 5:35am

Clusters have started early this season...usually get hit in mid to late September.

Doctor has only allowed me 1 shot per week. Since whenever I use imitrex, I feel like I'm having a coronary. Not to worry, they did all the tests and they say my heart is healthy. He thinks it could be coronary spasms whenever I use the trex. I probably won't even use the one. As thy say Clusters can't kill, but a Heart Attack can.

I did notice that my cycle last year was unusually short after limiting my trex ??? Coincidence? Who knows...but hopefully that's the bright side. Also, gonna try O2 again, using the info on this site. Can't hurt.

All I can say is " Hello Mr. Cluster, it's been a long time. Bring it on...let's see what you can do?

Prednisone and Verapamil is actually knocking down 80% of my Ch's. The ones that are getting through havent yet exceeded a 7. That might be the ticket for you also. The side effects are kind of bad, but truly, not near as bad as a 7+.
Good luck,

Patrick

Jim,
Awww...I'm sorry your time is here.
Can you do the imitrex tip on the left? It REALLY drops those chest tightening side effects way down. Like almost nothing!! And it works...and it was drawl your trex out longer.

Good luck sweety,
Mast

I never even thought of that, Mast...I'll definitely give the Imitrex tip a try.

Thanks, Jim

I dunno, does anyone know if DHE-45 shots have the same chest sqeezing side effect as imitrex?

Hound-Dogg, maybe you want to ask your doc about it?

Good luck to you!!
