Hello to everyone!!
It's been awhile since I last posted here in the cluster forum. I have been in remission for about 2 months. The past several weeks I have noticed a vague burning sensation behind my right eye and some vasodilation though no headbanger yet. As a precaution I have started Prednisone which will hopefully stop the clusters before they really begin. I would very much like to stay away from the Sansert for awhile. I took 80mg. of Prednisone last night. It kicked in right away as I consumed (through out the night at work)a box of wheat crackers, easter candy, carrots and caramel apple dip and a "few" other things. I am thankful though that I have not had a "live" cluster yet. I may add Bellergal-S as a preventative. Can't wait for the male version of PMS to kick in compliments of the Prednisone. I think I'll get a sign made for myself that simply says "Dangerous Person". I see my Doctor next Saturday. He is really booked up so an appoinment at 11:15AM means get there 1 and 1/2 hours early so they will pull my chart and the faster I will see the exit door.
Take care all!!
Phil
