25 days.  Grin  I'm looking forward to Monday. Then I won't be chronic anymore.   Cheesy  
I'm still getting an occasional nose "stab"...but I'm sure it's related to sinus congestion now.  
Thanks all.
hugs, nani

I haven't dosed with anything since August 20th, Karen.  Smiley
 
Since the inception of this route, I've used the following:
1    gm mushroom (tea)          7/20
1.5 gm mushroom (tea)          7/26
3 HBWR seeds                        8/03
3 HBWR seeds                        8/14
6 HBWR seeds                        8/20
 
I've just completed day 26.    Cheesy
I've also just sent my HA diary to Dr Sewell at Harvard. It was nice to just ditto ( " ) the PF days.
 
An interesting aside: I've done some reading about using psilocybin and kudzu to treat alcoholism and drug addiction. I can now say with certainty, that neither one does squat for chocolate addiction.  Undecided
But...who cares?  I'm PF!!!!
hugs, nani

Hello Nani,
 
I certainly hope you don't mind what I'm about to say, for I would never try to start a flame war on your miraculous thread and out of my high respect for you, but feel I must say this for the good of the people. I know the subject of using the alternate treatment for CH therapy is very controversial for some. I'm so happy and glad for all you sufferers that can find relief and satisfactory response with the use of FDA approved traditional/conventional meds for your CH condition. But some of us don't get those kind of results, myself included, and based on Nani's history neither can she, at least continuously and on going where they remain effective.  I had become very desperate myself due to non-efficacy of conventional meds. I had to make the choice to try the alternative treament for I had started to question myself and my wife on how I could continue living this life in such misery and pain because of my CH. The alternative treatment (ClusterBuster) method gave me my life back and now I can sincerely say I'm living a quality life.  
 
For all those that have followed Nani's history and uses of various treatments, you know she's damn near tried them all, if not all. She made the decision to try this treatment and you can all see the positive results she's receiving.  
 
I write this because I know the misery and pain this disease can cause and depresses me to see others having to suffer, possibly needlessly, or at least can be given an option to decrease the severity of this disease.  
 
I understand the moral, ethical, and legal issues some of you may have with this therapy. But if you're not responding satisfactorily with conventional meds, this is a valid option of treatment. This treatment is for real and works for most, if not all, when following the recommendations as listed on Clusterbusters.com. Again, I'm only writing this because I know how it helped with my CH and is quite obvious how it's helping Nani.
 
And Nani, I certainly hope you don't mind me writing this on your thread, I'm only trying to help others and am so happy for your results. I'm certainly not trying to hijack your thread.
 
AND PLEASE, IF ANY OF YOU FEEL THE NEED TO ARGUE MY POST, DON'T DO IT ON NANI'S THREAD, START A NEW THREAD OR PM ME DIRECTLY, I'LL RESPOND. I FEEL VERY STRONGLY AND SUPPORTIVE OF THIS TREATMENT OPTION. IT GAVE ME MY LIFE BACK.
 
And with that all my fellow CH sufferers, I'll close with one of my favorite Forest Gump's quotes "And that's all I have to say about that."
 
Namaste!
Bob

I don't mind Bob.  Smiley  But I am firm in my commitment to keeping this thread all about the info, and not about the argument.  Wink  
Bob is right folks, it's a tough choice to make for some (myself included) but the results often speak for themselves. It doesn't work for everybody, but when it does work...it really works well. It took me 18 months to try it, and I did so only after everything else failed, but I'm happy as heck that I did!  
hugs, nani

It's official! After 5 years of being chronic, I'm now an episodic.  Grin
The best part, for me, is that it's a med free remission.
I'm planning on a maintenance dose in another 30 days, unless I start getting signs that I need to dose again. This treatment has been a Godsend for me. I haven't felt this good in a very long time.  
 
Thank you all for your encouragement and support. Thank you BobW and the clusterbusters for all the advice as well. Thank you DJ for giving us this wonderful place to share our successes so that others can learn from them. (I feel like I won an Emmy, LOL)
hugs and love,
nani, the Episodic

I agree. Being PF is what matters and not the method how it was achieved.  Smiley
