Question About Sexual Desire
Jan 12th, 2011 at 11:08pm
 
I have have CH since my early teens (I am now 51).  I just started another series of CH after 14 months of being pain free.  Since my first CH a few days ago I have spent a great deal of time thinking about sex.  I have always had a strong desire for sex but it seems more so when I am having my cluster headaches.  I seem to remember reading that CH suffers have a higher than normal sex drive but I can't find anything about it on any of the websites.  Does this ring a bell with anyone?

Some CH meds seem to have to opposite effect, if you ask me.

I would agree with Jeannie. Verapamil is like the anti-Viagra.

We used to have a lot of discussions about hypersexuality.
the fact that a lot of meds have adverse effect on libido or sexual performance is another story.

the consensus was that we're a bunch of hornballs
