arrgg...well I am finally out of denial. After a month of having mild to moderate clusters, I had to start back with the verapamil yesterday. I have had 9 clusters in the past 20 hours. I guess you can safely say I am NOT a very happy camper right now. I don't know why I wait so long to start the verapamil again...it's like I can't bring myself to admit that the hell is back. I do this every single time a cycle starts. Can anyone please tell me how long I have to wait before the verapamil starts working? It's been so long that I have forgotten. I am afraid to go to sleep and yet I know I should try to get what rest I can in between attacks because the pain is so much harder to deal with when I am exhausted. Ok I am through venting for the moment. BTW....I have to say that I am so thankful for all of you being here for me to vent to. Oh and also please note that I am SonyaL. I understand there was some confusion a while back with another Sonya:)
