Hi here is something i used the last couple of days wich gave me at least a couple more hours of sleep.

I was on night shift last week 22:00 to 06:00 and getting 3 hits a day with 2 hours seperation (go to sleep 2 hours later up and dancing) wich you can imagine is a pain in the arse especially if you have worked all night. So after the first hit around 09:00 wich i killed off with O2 i took one of my tablets, Maxalt Lingua 10mg wich melt on the tongue (taste like crap but hey) after wich i was able to sleep for around 6 hours and once the beast didnt wake me. I was very happy with this result but i must allso warn everyone of the side effects. first off all i can take 1 in any 24hrs and only for 10 days so not for constant use. allso this is a triptan and one side affect is headaches  :D :D :D and can prolong a cycle.
maxalt for me is only used in extreme cases where i cant get to my O2 or i havent slept properly for 3-4 days. O2 is my only abortive and will continue to be untill some smart arse finds a cure  [smiley=deadhorse4.gif]

Never mix triptans

The standard maxalt instructions I've seen are that you can take 2 doses in 24 hours but should always wait at least 2 hours between doses.

Good reminder there bbz about how it can't be used along with imitrex.

Hi guys,
i was taking maxalt like sweets 3 months before i got diagnosed with CH. My Dr (bless her cotton socks) hit the roof (shes over 6ft tall lol) when she realised. im not a big fan of meds and try to avoid if possible but needs must when the devil drives (something like that)
bbz im never turning up to your house wearing a hat, or maybe i will ROFLMA

Mark (anyone got a hat for sale)

i take it your refering to my tattoo, i had it done last year it took 3 hrs and is a constant reminder during my PF time to always be prepared (enough O2 on stock and ready to go at a moments notice) it allso gives me an image that i can direct my anger into.
it works for me lol
