You guys are starting to scare me. I've been suffering for 11 years now (only Aug-Oct). Will I become chronic?
Anyway, I'm going to look into the Oxygen Therapy (see my posting of 8/10). People have had good results, and the cost is not as bad as the Imitrex inj, of which I would be company spokesperson, they work so well for me (but $$$)
I tried the ergotamine nasal spray. Didn't work well for me at all. Imitrex has a nasal spray now. Next time I visit my neuro, I'm going to bring him a "checklist" from this website, and I plan to discuss many more options. Beware of prednisone, it has many nasty side effects (you can find descriptions of this horror posted on the message board.
