I'm so glad you are feeling better. Ten years ago I live in a small own up in the Adirondack Mts Had a DR who would send me into the ER for a Toradol injection and a combo of DHE and Phenergan IV. This was before the days of Imitrex and Nasal sprays (Which don't work for me anyway). After sleeping for 2 days, I'd find the CH aborted. SUGGESTION: ALWAYS have someone to drive you home! I could not believe I was discharged and drove home! Oh, another thing for those who want to try the DHE- it can raise the B/P. Close monitoring (every 15 min) of the B/P is essential.
