I have never heard of stress causing a cluster cycle.


It may not cause a cluster cycle, but wait till you start a cycle and the biggest thing you can think of is the stress that preceded what occurred.

When in cycle, my mother-in-law can trigger a hit. So, I don't minimize the effect of stress....ever....


Oh, yes, stress can make anything you are dealing with worse!

Chronic stress can actually lower Serotonin levels. I agree that it should not be under estimated.

Words can not express the gratitude I have for all of you who have, in the midst of such great pain, reached out and helped so many...

Uh Oh,  I've been pain free for a week and a half but this morning woke up with some sort of shadow (?) not sure what it was it felt like a hit starting then self aborting - scared the crap out of me.  I've been doing Batch's supplements but since I've been off Imitrex and Verapamil for the past weeks I'm going to try adding the Kudzu and Skullcap and see what happens.
Wish me luck....
P.S. I did try 4 oz. of craft beer last night with dinner which at the time I had no problem with (first alcohol in six weeks)... suppose that may have had something to do with it?  No beer tonight for sure!

Hey Jim,
Just wanted to let you know, the cocktail has been working well!  I have decided many times over the past 6 months to just stop taking it, only for the beast to return, after going right back on it, thus far it has sent "it" packing.  The only change I have made to it is I dont use the St. John's wart, ran out and just never bothered getting more, but regardless, within a few days of going back on it last week, went from daily hits to none!  I am still considering a clincal trial my neuro is heading up, but if this continues to work, may pass. 
Thanks again!

Hi Mike!

Thanks for posting with your success story.

I've been PF now for about 4 years with the mix.  The SJW may or may not make any difference - I've never tried leaving it out.  Sounds like it's not essential, at least for you!

Hope your success continues!

Regards,
Jim
