Wasn't trying to say your son had migraines. Was just poking fun at myself for my attacks on the migrainers last week.
I agree with Margi on the research too. Serotonin, 5HT, was my addiction. I spent last year finding and reading every article I could on the stuff. I read articles on CH studies and how the trigeminal nerve, 5HT and the hypothalamus are linked in the creation of a cluster headache.
Things start with a success. Flash says, I drank mushroom tea and stopped my clusters. A few more say the same thing. Why may it be working? There are obvious similarities between hallucigens and 5HT. Enough to lend some credence to what Flash says, at least in my mind enough.
We have a few people who say they think taking diflucan has helped. OK. But I'm still waiting for that connection which will lend some scientific creedence to it.
I think a better question than the one you posted here would be,
1. Who has tried diflucan with success?
2. Who has tried it without success?
rather than who would take it if someone else said it helped them.
