1) I've noticed recently, during my ninth week of my first CH episode, that often before I get a CH I'll experience extreme sweating on the right side of my head (my CH's are right sided). Almost like the prodromal "lights" that migraine sufferers describe. Anyone else experience the same?
2) I've used Zomig (my neurologist recommended instead of imitrex) several times. The last two times, including this afternoon, I felt I was going to die thirty minutes after taking the medication. My blood pressure was normal, I had no chest pain, only an extraordinary feeling of heaviness and pressure over my entire body. I felt as if I could not move. I will not use this medication again. Has anyone experienced a similar reaction with Zomig or Imitrex?
