I haven't seen that one yet but calcium channel blockers, most popular and common around here being Verapamil, are a well known prevent for CH. If it has reduced your attacks down to annoying shadows, then it's doing a great job as a prevent.

Do you ever have break through attacks? Do you have anything ready for those? Imitrex, oxygen etc.?

I do a couple of things for those annoying shadows. I use energy drinks, any containing the combo of caffeine and taurine, my fav is sugar free Red Bull. Downing one of those will often chase the shadows away. Check with your doc because there can be an issue with using those in combo with Verapamil....not sure if yours is in the same class or not.

There is a nasal spray called 4Way Nasal Spray. Using that on the nostril same as the attack side brings many relief. Occasionally I'll resort to Excederin Migrain but don't make that a habit as OTC's do a lot of hurt in the long run.

Welcome to the board, when you get a chance expound a bit on what else you're using. We're a nosey bunch around here! Glad you're finding relief.

i was treated once with sibelium but i didn't find any help coming out of it,neither any side effects.
Changed it afterwards with Nimotop but yet the same results.
