I'm having a different cycle this time than ever before.
Always before I would have 12 weeks with a killer headache
at 1 or 2 am every night with a random night off thrown
in just to get my spirits up.
This summer I started getting the symptoms, stiffness around
eye temple and cheek bone, swelling of the eye lid, stuffed nose,
dull pain along side of the nose. I immediately went on a long burst of
prednisone with sansert. It lasted 12 weeks as usual but there was
never a break through CH. in the wee hours. This I'm thankful for, but
after the 12 week period was up the symptoms went away and i quit the
sansert. Two months later I'm back to where I started earlier in the summer
All of symtpoms without the headaches while using sansert and prednisone.
Well now the prednisone taper is done and Im left with
sansert.
Does anyone have an experience similar that might give me
an idea what to expect next. Will this dwindle away, stay the same, or get
worse?
I realize most won't have any more idea that I do.
Happy, Pain free day to all!
