I have also had some success with capsaicin cream. Mostly
as a prophylactic - some years ago I tried lidocaine, with
very little success - but the capsaicin does help. Be very
areful, if you get any in the eye by accident, for example off
your oxygen mask, you will remember the experience! Thanks to the
folks who have written about cold air. I had a "super cluster" last night
and my last oxygen tank was a dud - only 1/4 full even though it
was new from the supplier. Thirty minutes in the car with the
air conditioner on made the episode tolerable rather than hell.
