Many have posted messages claiming pseudo-ephedrine
and similar constrictors help prevent clusters.
I suspect, at least for me, that these type meds
caused the cluster condition in the first place.
As a chronic sinus sufferer I had taken sudafed,
way too much of it, for years.
I think my system became too accustomed
to these constrictors and created a threshold for
the clusters. Sort of the way caffeine withdrawl causes
headaches.
Would be interested to know if anyone else has had
similar experience.
All thoughts on this are greatly appreciated!
Sincerely,
Jeremy
