hello my fellow cluster heads...this is an update on my shroom treatment from last friday with some specifics pinky requested...(36 yrs old episodic (single :)male) Last Friday 9:00 i prepared the tea with Psilocybe Cubensis picked in northern florida (the cows didn't mind a bit)..dried caps and stems (shake)..i didn't weigh them, however i estimated it at just under 1/8 ounce (a "friend" was nice enough to give me 1/4 of his bag..which weighed just under an ounce)...i drank the tea while i was acute on empty stomach (no food for 12 hrs previous, and no meds however i had injected 18 hrs before..i believe the half life of imitrex is roughly 2-3 hrs)..the CH was aborted in about 10 min!..since friday i have had very very mild ch's...1 in the late am sat, 1 in pm sat) NONE sunday and a mild one this morn @9:00 (MAYBE a kip 2)..sleeping throught the night no prob...(all this coming off a butt-whipping 5 headache day thursday (6's and 7's) incidentally i believe my dose was too low as i didn't get "buzzed"..in fact was able to work all day. the results are incredible especially considering i was 4 weeks into a cycle that typically lasts 8 to 12 weeks)...i will continue to post my progress....incidentally the pshysiology of the CH has also changed..no shoulder or neck pain (typical 5 min before the beast stabs me in the eye..and the Ch just kind of hovers around my eyeball..no stuffy nose..no watery eye (it does get bloodshot)...and NO FEAR!!!
