Hi Marcus - I have suffered with CH's for 9 yrs. now and my last cycle (about 2 yrs. ago) i went to see my chiropractor who adjusted me about every other day for a solid week and a half. Believe it or not - on my last visit he did seem to break the back of the beast and my cycle seemed to end. I dont know if it was just coincidence or what but i liked thinking that he had the "magic bullet" i was looking for.
I am now in the middle of a pretty intense cycle, started teasing me in June, escalated in the beginning of July - full blown now - 3-4 CH's a day with no relief in sight. I immediately returned to the chiropractor and after a few adjustments, he hasnt yet beat the demon - actually this time it has seemed to intensify it believe it or not!! Go figure - one time it seemed to work great and the next - nothing!!
My advice is what i've been doing - try everything out there until you find a combination that works for you - certain drugs worked for me before that dont work now - what a strange condition!! I've had moderate success with 100% Oxygen and Imitrex tablets!! Seems to be the cocktail of choice for this dance with the devil!!
Best Of Luck to you!!
Kyle
