Title: Hello Post by Uforic on Aug 7th, 2012 at 11:19pm
Hi folks, I'm another newbie to the site and just wanted to say hello. I'm Craig from Fort Mill, SC, and this has been going on almost non-stop for 13 months. The longest break that I've had so far has been 9 days without, and the longest stretch with has been 3 per day for 28 days.
Haven't really found anything to stop them yet, I've been on Imatrex, Verapamil, Prednisone, Imotriptoline and Topimax. The latest thing that I just tried today is the O2 and that seemed to work better than anything that I've tried yet. I don't talk to anyone about about how much pain I'm in due to these HA's, I don't like to worry my wife (she's and RN), so when they hit I try to just go off by myself for a while until I'm fit to be around ppl again. Thanks for being here. |

Hey there, Craig, and welcome! I'm not sure what Batch sent you so I don't want to cover ground you may have already covered. It's not clear from your post if you have been prescribed the meds in therapeutic doses. Are you working with a headache specialist? Sometimes that can make a huge difference. Ask any questions, read and buck up! Help is on the way. blessings. lance
