Hi Ken,
How long and at what flow rate do you use the O2. After experimenting around, 7 liters/min. for about 10 minutes worked for me. I considered it a successful abort if I do not have to use it again for an hour or so. Use it for at least 2 minutes after the pain disappears. Before the Topamax started working I started about 9:00 P.M and was up about every hour through the morning with these buggers.
As I said in my Email, 6-25mg tabs of Topamax did nothing for my clusters. 7 knocked 'em out cold. Haven't lost 10 minutes of sleep since I started on 7.
Hang in there.
PFD's are coming!!
