Hey there Steve. I stop by the board periodically between bouts of CA myself. I'm pretty regular when in a cycle though. Hope yours is short. Lots of meds to try listed in the side panel links. As I always say, hang in there and keep trying different meds until something helps. I've had Verapamil stop my chronic cycle, only to seem useless when the headaches returned. Cafergot (ergotamine) always help me 90 percent of the time. Taken immediately, it aborts attack within 10 minutes. Like Imitrex, there is danger of rebound attacks. Good luck, Rich "Prayer should be our first resource, not our last resort."
