i'm in a small remission now and thankfull as anything. i went through an intenset treatment of steroids and everyday i wonder if it will come back
i remember the tens and remember the crying the screaming the pulling of hair and wallking on the wall with my head on my bed.
i pray every day that i don't have to do it again. i pray for you to join me in remession.
we're all there for each other and it's wonderful.
i have never tried oxygen but i'm going to get a tank to have in case they come back.
in the mean time my only weapon is vicadin. not the best. but imitrex doesn't work for me. so really my only comfort is the slight high i get after a 10 wears off.
it's sad. the only thing i have to look forward to...but it does help cut the attack from an hour + to about 30 minutes for me. not recommending it as abortive treatment, but you could ask neuro for some.
best of luck
