Just started this (sort of, had to order skull cap, be here on Monday).  I had to try it, due to the success of the other posters, plus the demon is kicking my a$$ right now Cry  I'm not sure if it'll be as effective w\o the skull cap, I'll see I guess.. Plus I'm already on allot of Melatonin, 27mg suggested by my Nuro, which I'm going to keep the same.

I'll update ya Kilowatt3 on progress, PF days to all and thanks for the advice, hope this work for me as well as it did for the others...

Hi TJ!

Sorry to hear you're getting hit so badly.  I'm glad you're giving the recipe a try!

I'd go ahead & start with what you've got, and just add the skullcap in when you get it.  I don't think there's a single ingredient that's key to making the recipe work - I just think it's better to have everything.  I've got a sort of unconventional theory as to why the stuff works that I'll try and post some time soon so everybody can tear it apart <G>.

You probably read that Cyndi's hub, Lorne, felt very strongly that the skullcap made a big difference, so maybe you'll want to start taking it as soon as you can.

Please do keep us updated as much as you can - hopefully daily.  Another success story would be great!  Bet you'll kick Beast a$$!

Good luck and best regards!
Jim

P.S.  Wow - 27 mg of melatonin is a ton!  I thought 10 mg was a lot!

That was the first night of real sleep I've had in weeks! Smiley Cheesy Grin
No sucking O2, no sticking a trex needle in my arm, I only woke up to pee...  I had some K1 type CH's the couple hours before bedtime, but they were killed easy with O2 and coffee.
Good combo I'm sticking with it.... Thanks Kilowatt3 and thanks to all the other posters for the info! Cool

I wanted to make sure to report back that I'm still PF!  I had one little blip of a problem on Friday, when I forgot to take the morning dose (I had an early meeting and ran out of the house without taking it) and then I had a K2 on Sat early morning, but now that I'm back on, I'm completely PF again.

I'm going to keep it going until Tuesday morning (a full week) and then drop it and hope for the best!

PF night 2! Smiley  I got a small K2-K3 around dinner time yesterday evening, didn't have any coffee made so it took the o2 longer to kill it.  I'm also making sure I drink allot of water, haven't got the skull cap yet, can't wait to see what that does....

Josh & TJ,

Great to hear from both of you!  Thanks for posting the progress reports.  Here's hoping that you've both just about got the Beast knocked out cold!  It seems to take a few days for the stuff to come up to its full effect, then you'll want to give it a week or so longer.

Please keep posting daily for a while so we can all follow up on your progress.

Best regards & GL,
Jim

Another PF day.  I'm going to keep going on the doses through tomorrow evening and then stop on Wed am if all stays well.  I have to admit, I'm nervous about stopping.

I don't blame you - I know exactly how you feel!  Just do what feels right for you.  You might want to give it another couple of days, since you had a HA as recently as Saturday, but on the other hand, I know you REALLY want to find out if your cycle's broken.  Hopefully, you're in for a real nice surprise!

Keep posting, and let us know how it goes.  Even if your cycle's not quite stopped, another few days might be all it takes.  I'm very optimistic for ya!

Got hit last night  Sad, but I'm not losing hope in the combo.  It was my first day back at work, my h2o intake was not that great, and I think I really need to get ahold of the skull cap tonight...  I got my usual K2-3 around dinner, but I got hit with a K-7-8 right about an hour after I went to bed, I hit the 02 hard, avoided the trex for fear of a rebound, which I've been getting. I had some other small hits through out the night but they were little K1s... I'm going to stick with it, hit the water hard and make sure I get that skull cap today.

Teajay-  Do get the skullcap.  It has tension/muscle relaxing properties and also is a sleep aid.  I think it is an essential part of this mixture, so do get it asap.  I had to get it in liquid form and take it that way, which should be fine.

Good luck and I wish you PF days and nights like I have been having after taking this mixture.

TJ,

Don't be discouraged - You've only been on the mix for a couple of days, and without the skullcap.  The first time I tried it, it took 4 or 5 days to break my cycle completely.  For Lorne, it was about a week or so.  Stay with it and see what happens!

Got the bed time hit and I figured out by reloading my pill counter that I wasn't taking St John's wart at bed time.  I got the Skull Kap last evening and yesterday makes the first day I did the combo right.  I've still been having PF mornings and days, which means allot b\c my job gets on my nerves enough w\o a CH hit!!! The Kilowatt3 combo take 2, it's been helping already.....

Hi TJ,

Glad it's helping!  I bet that now that you've got everything, and got the schedule in place, it'll get better still over the next few days!  Please keep posting with your progress reports!

My question is about the St John's Wort. What part does that play? The only reason I ask is because I know here in the UK, medical advice suggests the St. John's Wort reduces the effectiveness of the contraceptive pill.

I am considering trying out the herbal concoction providing I can find the right stuff here but just wanted to find out a bit more first.


Hi EM!

Sorry for being a little slow to respond to you!

I can't really say "what part" any of the ingredients play.  I feel very strongly, though, that they all contribute.  One person on the board insisted that the regimen was kudzu "with other stuff tacked on", and someone else referred to it as the "skullcap mixture".  I believe that both of them missed the point.  I think there's a lot of synergy between the components, and that the mix will work best with all of the ingredients in it.  I'm sure that it might do some good with one, or even two of the ingredients missing, but I've had great success with it as-is, and I'm not going to start leaving anything out just to see if it still works!  Wink

From what I've read, I believe you're right about the possibility of St. John's Wort interfering with birth control pills.  Keep in mind, though, that you're probably only talking about a couple of weeks at a time, a couple of times a year.  Seems like it would be worth it to use another contraceptive method for those few weeks.  Heck, maybe you could just go bowling or something instead of having sex...  Grin

Anyway, I hope you'll give the recipe a try, and have great success with it!  Please post again to let us know if you try it.

Very best regards & GL,
Jim

Karl,

I have to agree with you - Cyndi's first post is a nice read with a great pic!

Sorry to hear you're having such a hard time.  So, what are you waiting for?  Try out the recipe that Cyndi described!  No guarantees, of course, but it just might do you a lot of good!

Re: Kilowatt3!-wow!!
Reply #68 - Sep 24th, 2008 at 7:19pm
 
Whether it's the end of my 4 mos. episode or not , I'll take it!.
My story goes like this. I'm 60 yrs old and live near Peterborough Ontario. I've been in my 3rd episode(and longest) over the past 3 years. Thanks to this board, I found out about O2 in my 2nd cycle last year and it literally saved my life. (I use the clustermask with the mouthpiece only at 12-15 lpm-normally aborts in 3-7 mins.-most have been at the kip 6-8 level) ( 5-8 CH's/day and night)
Since this last episode has been the longest I was starting to really be concerned that I was starting to flirt with being chronic.
I decided to try RC seeds about 6 weeks ago. Started with 10 seeds/day and after 3 weeks had worked up to 100 seeds. No side effects at all but there was no change at al to my hits and I finally gave up.
Lurking on the board every day, I came across the first Kilowatt3 post and have been following it ever since. Two weeks ago I figured(being very skeptical) that I'd try it out anyways.
Got all the pills off the shelf at my local health food store and followed the mixture exactly as posted. It was on a Friday night nearly 2 weeks ago that I started and that was the first night I slept through the night in 4 mos. Now it's either a coincidence that I was going out of cycle that exact night or the formula really works(at least for me) as I HAVE NOT HAD ONE HEADEACHE SINCE. Belive me I've got my fingers crossed but so far so good and I am going to keep up the Kilowatt3(Jim) daily regimen for at least another few weeks. Thank-you JIM.
This is kind of freeking me out that it could actually work but I'll take it.

What a great board/resource for us CH'rs. I'll try and give you an update as time goes on. Thanks, Rocky

Hi Rocky!

Great to hear that you're having success with the mix!  So far, everyone who has tried it has had similar results, but it seems pretty hard to convince folks to try it  Tongue

Please keep us updated on your progress as often as possible!  Thanks very much for posting about your success so far!

Very best regards,
Jim

Sorry got Busy....  After more than a week, I'm still getting hit in the middle of the night.  It did have a strong effect the first couple days, plus I'm not getting any day time hits.  I have only been using O2 to abort, which wasn't as successful before this, I was using lots of Trex.
I'm on Topamax, which may be messing with the effects of this combo also, my cycles tend to be stubborn.  I visit the Nuro Monday, going to ween off the T-max, I've had my fill after 14 months.  After the d-tox, strongly thinking of treating CH all natural.  Going to keep taking this combo till 2 weeks is up to see what happens, and I'm going to use it after I detox from T-max, for future cycles.  It did help!

Hooray!! That's exactly what we call the regimen! THE KILOWATT3! LOL, it's become a household name! So happy to hear you are pain free. I cannot imagine Lorne's cycle going strong for 4 months. The longest he's had is 12 weeks and that's more than anyone should have to bear. I'm so delighted you tried it and can't wait for updates. We're going to be following this until everyone tries it, or it ends up in a magazine. Guess what? Lorne and his entire family here is from Canada also and he is especially excited to hear from you.

I just posted this in my intro thread, but I think I will just switch over to this one for good.  I am still completely pain free! since staying on The Kilowatt3 Treatment Plan!  I'm going to stay on it until next week and then hope for the best.  It is so wonderful to hear that others are being helped by this treatment as well.  If you are lurking and reading about this and are experiencing CH, please try it... what could be the harm in at least trying?

Teajay-

I'm not any sort of medical expert, but I've been doing a bit of research on all of the ingredients in Kilowatt3's mixture, and something you said has been bothering me.  You said your neurologist prescribed 27mg of melatonin.  That is an off the charts amount of melatonin!  I would strongly, strongly recommend that you check with another doctor that has experience with supplements like melatonin and get a second opinion. 

One of the widely reported side effects of large doses of melatonin is headaches.  When I discussed this mixture with my Naturopath/MD, she said she frequently prescribes super high doses of melatonin (10-20mg) for people with cancer, but she also usually has to include other things for the side effects (including headaches).  Her thought was that 10mg of melatonin was more than enough to help with the mixture of other ingredients that Kilowatt3 has posted.  I actually started (and have stayed with) 5mg of melatonin and it has been really successful so far.

I hope this info helps, and more importantly I hope you finally are able to get rid of those night headaches!

Thanks Josh, I really need to ask the Dr about the melatonin, I'm way too tired in the morning, more so now with the addition of the Kilowatt3 Treatment combo, which is helping.  I'm still getting my night time hits (1\2 to 1 hour after falling asleep and repeating) through out the night, so I'm hoping taking this for another 2-3 weeks knocks them out.  The last 2 nights I've taken five 3mg Melatonin pills, instead of the usual 7seven, haven't noticed a difference, maybe I'll take away one more and see if that does anything.  I was afraid to adjust the melatonin from the start b\c I've been taking that amount for the better part of a year.  When I would forget to take melatonin out of cycle, I would get a CH, I never triggered a cycle, but everytime I forgot to take it I got a headache in the past.
