I have been on Verapimil for 8 days now -- 120 mg in the am and 120 at night in the beginning and now 240 in the am and 120 at night. And it is working. My Dr. suggested I try it when I am entering a cluster (usually srping and fall for aout 6 weeks) t okick me out of the cluster and return me to normal., He said it would lessen the severity and lessen the number of them.
Well -- it is working. I have not awoken in five nights with a headache - -and the ones I get during the day are mild and tend to go away with a small does of imitrex or a coke.
Now that I have jinxed myself (I will probably wake up tonight with a rager) -- I will keep you posted. But it does work!
