My CH just came back 3 days ago. It last went away Jan. 2002. I took sansert for 3 weeks. It really helped me. I just went to a doctor to get a prescription today and was told that sansert is no longer produced. Any suggestions for an alternative? How is Verapamil? I would appreciate any feedback from my fellow sufferers.

henry - I used oxygen and Imitrex as abortives until the Verapamil made them unneeded. The Verap took about 7 days to be fully effective because I had to up the dosage after 5. Within 3-5 days after starting Verap, I had fewer hits and they were of lower intensity. Upping the dose and a few more days and I went PF.
Watch your blood pressure and eat lots of roughage.
Good luck

Henry,
I agree with everything domm has said. If your Dr will agree to it ask for o2 & imitrex for abortives and Verapamil for a preventive.
