have'nt been here for awhile.
had to 'hang up' being a cop for twenty years because of the !@#$%^ chronic cluster headaches everyday.
i have tried ALL of the drugs YOU have tried, and MANY
more
for the last few months i have been taking MARINOL tablets (2 in the morning, 2-3 in the evening AND
LORTAB 10/500 as needed. yes I AM MIXING THE DRUGS.
dhe shots don't work anymore. these won't either after a time. i will then switch to demerol and/or morphine.
when that stops working, i WILL use stronger narcotics if thats what it takes.
if your neurologist even HESITATES to relieve your pain, go see a CANCER doctor (oncologist)...he WILL
help you with your cluster pain.
my philosophy of dealing with these clusters has changed. NOBODY can cure the clusters, so TREAT THE PAIN!!!! at ANY cost.
i hope you all will survive this crap.
REMEMBER- i was a cop for twenty years. I KNOW why 'the powers' want to keep marijuana illegal- and it has NOTHING to do with the fact that it works to relieve pain and take the 'edge' off.
TREAT THE PAIN MY FRIENDS, just don't get 'stupid' and get in trouble. be careful.......ed
