Rent an O2 tank (with prescription from doctor) and
keep it by your bed. Start inhaling oxygen at 7-10
liter flow at first sign of headache. Use a face
mask rather than nozzle device. Also, have you
tried a tapering dose of Prednisone (starting with
60 mg for 5 or so days, then 50, etc.)? Lithium is
another possible drug, or Indocin, or Verapamil.
