Imigran Injection (Imitrex)
Aug 21st, 2009 at 3:56pm
 
I will start to use Imigran Injection solution. (Imitrex)
as a test to determen my tolarence and reaction and
effectiveness to / of  Imigran,
as an alternative to Zomig Nasal…… if I am forced
to use it.... when nothing works.....

What I wonder is what is the most effective place
to inject the Imigran…..

I was suggested to inject into the thigh, but would like
to have the knowledge of the experienced….

For me it works fastest if I inject it into the abdomen.

Hey Michael,

I was just mentioning in another thread here that I had read about pinching some belly fat and injecting there.

This works way better and less painful than anywhere else for me, even though I'm dang skinny and can maybe only pinch an inch.  Smiley

You've read the "Imitrex tip" on this site I hope (It's in a side bar over there on the left). It has enabled myself and others to get twice as many effective injections for our $.

CH according to Bejeeber:

Strictly relying on doctors for CH treatment is often a prescription that will keep you in a whole lot of PAIN. Doctors are WAY behind in many respects, and they are usually completely unaware of the benefits of high flow 100% O2.

There are lots of effective treatments documented at this site. Take matters into your own hands, learn as much as you can here and at clusterbusters.com, put it into practice, then tell this CH beast Jeebs said hello right before you bash him so hard with a swift uppercut knockout punch that his stupid horns go flinging right off.

I prefer the Q-tip variant with a 1/3 dose.
There once was a post somewhere describing how to modify the auto-injector to only inject half of the dose.
This doesn't work anymore since the auto-injectors were modified.
