I have recently been prescribed oxygen for my CH. The doctor just said to "try it".
Sometimes it works within five minutes, other times not, and I just get a build-up of one attch on top of another. You know the different pains that you can associate with different parts of an attack - well they all seem to coming at once.
How much O2 should one take?
How often can one take it?
I heard a news report that on of the Mir astronauts had developed a wheeze through over use of O2.
Does anybody use anything else in combination with O2?
Any info would set my mind at rest it's bad enough having the headaches without the additional worry.
Thanks
