Hey, great news!! Had my consultation with the Pulmonary Dept. today. All went well. Everything has been cleared up. No restrictions on O2 - yeah!!!
Sent for the O2ptimask today.
I'll let you know how that works for me.

o2 works great, as an abortive, but they keep coming back over and over and over. wish it would prevent a couple too, then it would be truly a miracle. :'(

I had that problem in the past too, within 10-20 minutes of shutting down the 02, the beast is back. I started combining an oral cafergot, taken as soon as I started the 02, with the oxygen. 02 beat it down, the cafergot bought me up to 12 hours pain free time. Several others have reported similar effects using energy drinks instead of the cafergot. I intend to give that a shot next cycle, would be nice to be able to pitch the cafergot too!
