Post by ronica3232 on Mar 24th, 2015 at 8:38pm
my doctor wants to put me on allevio, has anyone tried it???  Ive been a suffering from ch for 13 years just 4 years ago i actually figured out what they were and started taking verapamill and it worked yaayyy!!!! than poof! for 2 years i stopped getting headaches.  And about 4 weeks ago I started getting them again and they came back pisssssed!!!!! im taking 1000 mg of verapamill basically doubling what I was taking before and also taking an anti seizure medication called zonisimide at 400 mg a day and its not working quite yet bec it has to build up in my system and so the doc said he could give me allevio which is lidocaine sort of injected somewhere thru my nose in the back of my head.  anyone ever heard of it??? i trust my neuro but its kinda weird

Not up to speed on this one, but your neuro  should have
prescribed you a Prednisone taper dose 7-10 days until the
Verapamil kicks in.
