Hi Group - unfortunately here i am again - in the middle of a cycle that by all accounts is the worst yet! These clusters are coming on at all ours of the day and night, not like before when i would only get 1 or 2 a night after going to bed! Does anyone know any EFFECTIVE treatments for these demons? I am currently on oxygen and that helps at times. In the past ive tried benadryl, inderal, fiorinal, prednisone, lithium, but to no avail - it just seemed to antagonize the demon even further!! I dont know how much more of this i can take. My wife, who is wonderful and very supportive, tries to understand, but how can anyone who has never experienced this pain truly understand?!?! Last night was probably the worst yet - 3 in a matter of 3 1/2 hours - pure hell on earth!!! What's next? Can anyone give me any ideas - at this point i would do absolutely ANYTHING to relieve these things!!! Ive tried the water as well and have even gone back to the chiropractor - im running out of resourses and going completely out of my mind - please help!!
