Hi all. Long time since I communicated. The Beast is 3-5 times every day now and has decided to vary his schedule so that I can't even anticipate when he will strike. I'm getting frustrated, my neurologist is super, but I think even he is getting frustrated, but we're fighting on. Oxygen hasn't helped. Had a sleep study--no apnea--but don't REM sleep so on Remeron plus Melatonin at night to try and help with that. Also on Topamax + Verapamil. He just suggested supplementing with magnesium gluconate. I posted a note to Dr. Greg about this, but curious if anyone out there has tried this. I'm willing to try anything! Prednisone is magical for me, but not a long term solution. Just want the headaches to stop and to get back to work--I miss it so much! Your thoughts?
