Hello jackieg.

To answer your question...I have.  My first use of the D3 regimen was at the beginning of a headache cycle. The number of headaches was reduced by around 75%, and the pain levels didn't reach above a 5 out of 10. That was 30 months ago, and my yearly cycles have been prevented since then, with the exception of a few random attacks, which haven't required O2. I stay on the regimen year round. Seeds failed me. The problem with them is that you can't count on consistant potency. A good brand of D3 and co-factors will have guaranteed content by a testing company, such as USP.

Take care.

I understand your fear that they will break through. What you're currently experiencing isn't unusual, based on others' accounts. The pain can be more diffused, or even on the opposite side. But just the fact that it's different suggests that the D3 is working. A lot of people have commented on their cycles acting weird. My last cycle did not end abruptly. It lasted the usual length of time (6 weeks), and my diary indicated that it followed a similar pattern to past cycles...just much less intense. It still revved up and concluded in a similar way to past cycles. If you have been at this for 30 years (me too ), then you must have a good handle on how your cycle usually ends. You might get even better results than I did if you try the loading doses which Batch describes in his Anti-inflammatory post Multimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!!  You need to or .

Hey Jackieg,

I use Benadryl when necessary, to good effect. BUT, a word of warning if it's not already been mentioned. It can make you quite drowsey and not really fit for driving.

So I suggest you take it in the evening when you know you're home for the night.

Best of luck,

Peter.
