I am an episodic CH. I've had CH for 20 yrs. and diagnosed 15 yrs ago. I never used o2 until this past episode (except at E.R.). I was motivated by stories of success on this board to demand it from my Doc. Prednisone did work for me for a long time but that was when my cycles were shorter. This past cycle was much longer and the preds did not work for me as well. As a result, I was on preds longer and I did experiance some nasty side effects. A natural bad mood turned into potential for rage. I hated it but I hated the CH worse. Bottum line .... I tried o2 as advised on this board ..( maybe someone who has explained the best method in the past could do so again for new people) It worked for me. Maybe it won't for you but ... maybe it will! I hope it does. stevevr
