Finally. Last Sunday evening I came home from a weekend trip to find my husband in a CH that had lasted since 4 a.m. I called the neurologist and he sent him to the ER, where they pumped him full of Demerol (made it worse) and Morphine (dulled it but still there). Then they admitted him...he had another the next morning at 4 a.m. and after they exhausted his dosage of Morphine they went to Thorazine. Doctor came in on Monday a.m. and prescribed IV Compazine and DHE 45(sorry, don't know the full terms for it). Folks, it WORKED!!

He's now almost done with a decreasing dosepak of Medrol and on Sansert to prevent the attacks..BUT WE HAVE BEEN PAINFREE SINCE MONDAY AT 6 A.M.!!!!! Almost a week now, these two medicines broke the cycle.

It's hard to believe the change in him. But I love it. And thanks to everyone for being there.
