Margi, Everyone is pushing the water, and I understand it does work for some. Since I first read the "water" stories, I eliminated soda from my quenchlist and added water as the mainstay. I go to the bathroom alot, but thats it. no luck with it working as a cure.
The doctor gave me a prescript for Stadol spray today, but it is $100.00, which means I won't be getting it anytime soon. Right now my main concern is the fact I will be out of Verapamil as of sunday ( already taking too low of a dose now) and the last time I was off of it was last year. I was having back 2 back clusters for 4 days. Wanted desperately to die. Hope that is not the case this time, but my optimism is bathed in a river of piss. I have also been taking super B-12 vitamins, and trying to eat healthier, but nothing seems to help. Some are talking about being chronic for years. YEARS? YEARS?!??!! I dont think I can deal with it for YEARS! 16 months is long enough!!! I'm freaking. Don't quite know where to go from here. Hurt,confused...and destined to be tortured.
