When I read about it, seems like a holistic treatment for Migraines. If you ask me I'd say it's a waste of money, like accupuncture or chiropractic. More like snake oil, very little value as a CH treatment. But that's me. Don

"Fraid I don't know anything about it.

I'm trying not to be so quick to dismiss the idea of herbs for CH, since seeing several people on here report good results with Kudzu.

And of course there are other medicinal plants such as psilocybin that have undeniable (IMO) CH fighting properties.

If you do try it, please report back with your impressions, and please avoid any heart attacks on a bun that Brew offers up, otherwise known as butterburgers. Cheesy

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.

Yep - Living longer is highly overrated. All those extra years get tacked on at the end.

Now if they could get added somewhere there in the middle....you know, in the 40's...might not be so over rated after all...but alas..... Angry

I use butterbur on a regular basis for my Migraines - it does Nothing for my CH... just my experience. It works better for me than any meds for migraine - I stop taking it and they come back with a vengeance! It was suggested by a headache specialist, and Goadsby even admits that there has been admitted success for migraine with butterbur (he is not one who works much with alternatives in my experience...)
Thought I'd share anyway,

monty CH.com Hall of Famer Offline Posts: 1056 The Swamp, Florida	Re: Butterbur Reply #17 - Feb 6^th, 2010 at 1:32am I only know of one other person who tried butterbur for clusters (Lizzie). She didn't report much success if I recall correctly, but she didn't get much relief from anything else, either ... and she tried quite a bit: most of the patent pharmaceuticals, most of the alternatives, surgery.
