I don't drink. I don't smoke. That doesn't make me any better than anyone else. It hasn't made my chronic Clusters any better either. Sounds like you're about the same.
I've never tried Vicodin(hydrocodone),Percoset(Oxycodone) Demerol, Darvoset(propoxyphene) for my chronic Cluster Headaches.
Been clustering for 16 years now. I ain't gotta tell you - they hurt.
I love my Imitrex injections. 1/3 of a shot and the attack is gone in 10 minutes. That's a lot better than the old days when the attacks would last from 1 - 3 hours. I love my Imitrex injections. I can work my job, be with my wife and kids and enjoy life, in-between attacks. The Imitrex injections give me a lot more 'in-between' time. I like that.
Good luck with your Chemotherapy. I mean that. I'll be thinking about ya. One question, though. Why not just try some self-control instead of the Chemo?
