Title: Does Oxygen or Trex...
Post by Biggiestyle on Mar 1^st, 2005, 11:30pm

Work for a CH caused by drinking beer or wine?

When I am 2 weeks free and clear of CH's I would like to have a glass of wine with dinner. If a CH comes on does the O2 and/or the Trex Nasal injector stuff work on ones cause by alcohol?

I haven't had to use the O2 since I got it but had a CH 6 and did the Zomag nasal stuff and it was gone in 20 minutes. Usually last 2 hours for me.

Any input would help.

There is so much individual variation in our responses to meds that you can only try and see. I would guess that abortives might dampen an attack but not give as good results compared to being off alcohol.

Why would you want to drink knowing that alcohol causes or triggers ch and brings on your pain. Stay away from the stuff.
