I have tried the methadone regimen. Yes it got rid of the headaches, however it was prescribed wrong, I was told to take 1 10mg tablet 4 times a day - I ended up in the hospital damn near dead with methadone poisoning among other things.
I won't touch that stuff again no how no way, but it did get rid of my headaches.

Methadone also ranks high among the most difficult drugs to withdraw from.
Alcohol and Benzos fill out the top three.

Religion and sex are powerplays. Manipulate the people for the money they pay. Selling skin, selling God, the numbers look the same on their credit cards. Triptans cause rebounds. Learn it, believe it, live it. I use triptans as the absolute LAST RESORT when treating my CH.

Morphine or demerol wouldn't touch a ch. Dilaudid 4 mg would kill my ha and knock me out cold. I would wake up and not have a ha for another 2-4 days.
Methadone 10mg am and 10mg pm worked great for me for a year. It keeped me out off the er for migraine or ch. It keeped my chronic ch gone for over a year.
I switched to duragesic fentanly patch. 50mcg. I have not had a ch In almost 1 1/2 years that is amazing miricle to me. I am not buzzed or high. I can function fully and have a quality of life back.
I say narcotics do have a role after everything has been tried and nothing works.

Hello fellow CH's, I just wanted to share this wierd experience to see if anyone else has had this happen to them. My CH usually come from June - Sept, every day...but a couple of years ago I had to have surgery for a pulled tendon in my hand (in april) and when June came around no CH...and last year I had to had surgery on my Thyroid and again no CH last summer. Now I do not know if the surgery had anything to do with me not getting the CH or what, but I think it is strange that since surgery no CH. Now I was given Morphine after the surgery, (you know the kind where you can pump it yourself) and don't know if it was this or the meds the anethist(sp) gave me to knock me out. Let me know if anyone else has this happen to them.

Hi Katie...welcome. Sometimes our cycles change. Some folks may only have an episode every 5 years. It's hard to say whether your surgeries had anything to do with the change in your cycle. My sister has episodic CH and each episode will prompt her to try something different. This year she gave up sugar and insisted that was why her HAs stopped. I explained that maybe her episode was over and she insisted it was because she'd detoxed. Who knows? We're all different and the beast will keep changing the rules of the game. Those are the only constants in CH. Pain free wishes, nani
