I don't want to jinx this but I have not had a CH since yesterday at 1:00 pm and no narcotics since then either!!! After just 3 lithium tabs!!! I talked to the neuro last evening and told him I felt better and he said lithium could work this fast in a lithium sensitive person! I cannot believe this. I was having 7-8/day, 2-3 night and they were increasing in severity and frequency. To sleep through the night and awake without a headache is a miracle to me! To sit here at 5:30 am and type this without a headache in progress is incredible. I just hope it keeps working...if this IS the solution for me, I urge others experiencing CH who have NEVER tried lithium, to give it a shot because the turnaround for me is extremely dramatic...
