I will not take prednisone...and I've had it with imitrex as well...maxalt, all that bs they give you..my doc would NOT help me get oxygen...seems typical with everyone's experience to say that doctors are f'ed in the head and though I do not wish ch on anyone...if the medical "professionals" could just get a glimpse of the pain , maybe they'd sing a different ditty.
my question is...do I need a doctor to get o2?
can I get it on my own?
I am just out of a cluster, suffered through most of the bouts, used imitrex a couple times, until it stopped working...and found the blood redirecting tachnique to be pretty good, thank you charlie, I ran hot water over my hands for about 10 minutes and voila!
pain going away is the highest high I've ever had...
I feel for you all, hang in there
