Just as a note to those that read some of the previous postings reguarding o2 use. I had said I had used it in the past with ok relief but thought that I was rebounding, with more attacks in a day than when I didn't use it. Well my curiosity ( and the fact I was out of Imitrex, at work,in incredible pain, and had access to it) was pict. And quess what? I think I was right. I used it at 4:00, CH gone inminutes. I used it again at 7:00, gone in minutes. I used it at 11:00 not gone in minutes...would not go away...took Imitrex when I got home...gone. My usual pattern is 1-3 a day, I've never had them at work, always at least one at night and one or two in the daytime. Why would I have that many at a time (and place) I've never had this pattern before. Only when I used the oxygen? I would love to not use the drugs but I don't know what else to do. (I work 3-11)...Anyone else get a tension headache in between attacks, either from anticipation of the next atack or from all the tight muscles in your neck? God Bless JenR (jen,Jen) now there is two of us.
