Hi, I'm just wanted to know how well Prednisone has worked for some of you. I've been going threw hell the last 2 months, the longest cycle I've ever had in 20 years. Most of the time they would last 2 weeks to a month and 2 may be 3 a day. This time I've 4-5 some days, waking me up at night. I had went almost 2 years with out one, and then BANG! I get them worse then ever. the Imitrex shots work, but when I get so many in one day I end up taking to many. If I've got the shots I'll take them,I don't care how many I've taken. So now I'm trying other things. I've tryed the Sansert with no luck and now I'm on the Prednisone. Started with 8-5MG daily for 3 days,then 6 for 3 days,then 4 and so on. When I was on 8 for 3 days I had no headaches. The first day I went down to 6 and there back. I know I can't stay a 8 a day. Just want to know if this has happen to anyone else. I guess the next thing will be Oxygen. Thanks to you all for your time. This site gives me some hope. It's nice to have people that understand what I'm going threw, Most people don't.
Thanks, Bob
