Sorry, I have not been here for a while. Just checking the threads on my "Drugs don't work" vent. Firstly, I apologize to the women out there I inadvertently insulted. That was not my intent. My point is I want to know what triggers my clusters and what In can do to prevent them. Taking a cocktail of drugs AFTER they have started proves that drugs don't work, because you should be able to take the drugs regularly and never suffer an attack. There are always exceptions to every rule, however, the mere existence of this message board of sufferers looking for help proves there is no reliable treatment. Read the posts. Read the pain and the suffering. Read about all the drugs and treatments everyone is trying. Read the frantic pleas of there must be something. How can something be treated when the cause is not known? Hide behind drugs if you will, but they are not reliable and do not work.
