Title: A few questions about Seeds?
Post by fiftyamp on Jan 7th, 2009 at 12:51am
I've just started a cycle, and I'm trying to bust with seeds for the first time.  I ordered some of the Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds, and I have a few questions.

I last used Imatrex this past Sat., I was wondering what the proper detox time would be before I took the seeds.  Also, I've busted with shrooms in the past, and have been hit hard the next day with some of the most severe CHs I've had.  Is this also the case with the seeds?  

Thanks in advance.

When i first tried the seeds i was at the end of a very nasty cycle and it ended it right on the spot. I have heard about some getting hammered after shrooms but never after seeds. As far as detox goes you should be fine now, and have you considered 02 it would help. Coach Bill

I've been using RC seeds on and off for about 18 months. Yes, when I first started with them I got very bad hits with increased frequency on the following day. Follow up doses did not produce that result.

I'm a 12 year chronic who has had some good long breaks with RC seeds. My results tend to be variable with a routine of 75 seed doses every 7-10 days, but I'm convinced that they are helping.  Without medication, my CH's have peaks and valleys. I am convinced that the RC seeds work very well during the "low" points, but when it's "high cycle" time, they break through.

Back in June/July, I started believing that I was finally outgrowing CH's and skipped doses because I doing great - that was a big mistake that brought me to my knees. The really good news is that O2 has become almost exponentially more effective since I started using RC seeds. It’s been several weeks since I’ve had to abort using Triptans.

I may be different than most because I get absolutely zero psychoactive reaction with RC seeds at doses up over 100 seeds. I do not take any daily medications and I've even tried fasting for 12 hours prior to dosing and still felt nothing.

Like everything else, seeds work differently for different people. In my case, seeds are not an overnight miracle - it takes multiple doses over time with gradual improvement.

For me, it's a process - not an event.

Thanks for the advise guys!  I'm hoping this works!  My Chs have decided to mix things up a bit this time.  I've been getting hit every other night with back to backers with a short break in between.  Bastards!  

I do want to try the o2.  I've scheduled an appointment with the Nureo to try to get some.  

Cheers!

Do it! I simply can't imagine being without oxygen now.

In fact, I switched to welding O2 when I recently moved to another state that wouldn't accept my prescription from my last Neuro.

What's up with the welders o2?  I guess it's safe if you're on it.

Yup, several of us are. See the other posts in this section of the board.

Let me know if you need more info,  I would be happy to tell what I do.

Thanks guys.  Does that cluster mask fit the welders o2, or do you need some sort of addaptor?

Here's another one. The first one is a medical regulator, this one is the industrial regulator. Both will work and can be used with a non-rebreather or clustermasx.

Thank You!  I tried the HBW seeds yesterday.  I took five.  They were a huge pain in the ass to seperate from the husk.  No pronounced 'tripping' effect at all.  So far no rebound head ache, yet.(knocking wood).  

Going to look into the Welder's o2 today.

Cheers!
