I haven't tied that combo so I can't respond to your question. I just wanted to say welcome aboard. Saw your entry in the guestbook this morning. I first started getting my CH years ago when I was in Navy, stationed in Long Beach, Calif. That was after a stint with the "brown water navy" in Binh Thuy, Viet Nam. Always had in the back of my mind that I could blame this crap on agent orange or something. I'm curious how understanding the USN is with your condition. Do you still have to try to function with the headaches or do they let you hit the rack?
As I say, I haven't tried these meds. My Dr. won't perscribe the Sansert because of side effects. I read that they, the side effects, are rare and only show up with prolonged use. The PDR says after 6 months on, 2 weeks off.
At any rate, I'm sure you'll get some good input from those that have used them. Welcome to the board and good luck.
