I just upped my verapamil dosage based on the
experience of the people here. I don't have any
of the side effects, but I also don't seem to be
seeing any benefit.

I called the doc yesterday and he called in a
prescription for depakote. The side effects for
this stuff really sound scary, but it beats 4-5
imitrex injections per day (just yesterday, by
far the worst day I have had this cycle). The
depokate makes me feel strange, and my doc wants
me to do a blood work-up to monitor white cell
counts and liver damage (yum!).

What I really want is for these things to run
their course and leave me alone for a couple years.

Best of luck, Jeremy

Rick
