First I must thank DJ again for this site. It has been a life line for me. With this site, I've educated myself further from all of you and your experiences. This site also introduced me to Dr. Mellick and his Ritalin study.
Just wanted everyone to know that I continue to make positive progress, thanks to Ritalin. I still continue to cluster; though the intensity and freq. have decreased. That is a miracle in itself. I just followed up at Diamond and increased my Ritalin dosage (my fingers are crossed). The Diamond Clinic is now looking at Ritalin research / possibilities thanks to Dr. Mellick's study. I continue to shout its praises from the roof tops (from Mayo to Diamond). Be vocal about clusters and the help we need and deserve.
Thanks again to everyone's kind words and support. May we all gain a remission soon. irene
