THE CURE:
(PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE LETTER)
After suffering for ehh? 8+ years with these cluster bombs. I think and am
90% sure I have come up with the cure, or at least a way to break the cycle.
I started in on the fall session around October first. Above the right eye
this time. I don’t even bother going to the doctor’s anymore. They are a
bunch of knife happy bastards. I had, for the past two years, been trying
with no success herbal remedies such as Ginseng, Ginkgo, Feverfew and all that
stuff. Being a chemist, I approached the headaches scientifically, from what
the doctors know, which is very little, and from analyzing the effects of
other treatments that help lessen the pain and occurrence such as oxygen. It
hit me. If circulation and lack of oxygen are a main problem, I wonder how
this study aid pill I used to take for the all nighters would work.
(Ephedrine HCl). It is like an aerobic work out in the form of a pill. It
increases the heart rate and dilates blood vessels and over all increases the
amount of oxygen in the blood stream. It is completely safe for most people.
It really wakes you up and is a chemical neighbor of sudefed. So I tried
them, larger doses than recommended by the manufacturer, But it worked.
I took:
3 tablets in the morning and then 3 at 5:00 when I got out of work.
Tablets are( 25mg Ephedrine HCl + 100mg Guaifensen<-Spelling?) They are about
1/4 inch in diameter and thin. They have a cross on one side and (M18) on the
other. They can be found at a gas station near you by the name of Two-Way
bronchulator and are commonly used as asthma aids (or a quick waker-upper for
truck drivers). I am not sure if the Guaifensen does any good. They used to
sell 25mg Ephedrine HCl alone but since it can be used to synthesize meth-
amphetamine (Which your government has deemed way too fun and addicting for
public use) they don’t anymore. You can also order Ephedrine HCl at your
favorite pharmacy. It is an over the counter drug and doesn’t require a
subscription. Ephedrine is non-addicting and non-habit forming.
NOW FOR THE GREAT NEWS: The day I started this treatment, only two weeks into
the headaches, They went away. I stopped the treatment after three days and
had another headache. I started back on them and stayed on them for a week,
They were gone and I haven’t had another since. I recently had an
acquaintance stop by that had just started getting the clusters for his first
time. He was a month into the cycle. He asked me what I do for them, So I
told him that I had great success recently with this treatment. I gave him a
few of the pills and told him the dosages. I just talked to him today
(11/18/98) a week later, And it worked again. He hasn’t had a headache since
he started the Ephedrine.
DISCLAIMER: Before trying this treatment, Read all precautions on the
container thoroughly. Some people might suffer slight side-effects. Loads of
information and interactions can be found on the internet, check them too. I
will not be held responsible for any bad effects that this treatment may
cause. You are trying this treatment at your own risk. If you have to sue
someone, sue the manufacturers of the product. After all, I am only trying to
help.
IF IT WORKS FOR YOU, AND YOU FEEL LIKE IT, SEND ME A CHRISTMAS CARD OR
SOMETHING AND LET ME KNOW:
Best of luck to you and I sincerely hope that this works for you. I really do
feel for you!
You can probably imagine how excited I am that I finally found something that
works.
