The Subject was intended to get your attention;sorry 'bout that. I have observed that Verapamil SR has become a popular treatment for Cluster Headaches on this site and from other sources; medical, personal, and other resources. I have also noticed some post where Verapamil SR failed to work for some of us after a while. I try to be objective and do read the Follow Ups concerning a certain issue, treatment, idea, tips and I feel this is important and exciting! But I have noticed over a period of months a posting that stands out
including some of the follow ups. I keep seeing a common statement, something like " I am pain free at last, I can't believe it works, etc
You all know there is muche to be learened about CHs and things get complex medically and by odd experiences that share a common thread. I realize that commonalities can be helpful or detract from or complicate our syndrome. Please share your thoughts on Verapamil, again please since this may have been a issue I missed in the archives. All experiences can be sent to me at dchal@negia.net as to slow the traffic on the MB. But that is your choice
Greatfully yours,DC
