I am a 50Years old man, suferred from Cluster for over 30 years
Seen a series of MD, finally my family practicioner
referred me to a Neurologist who prescribed
Lithium Carbonate, 1 tablet 3 times a day (300mg Each)
It worked for me an since July 99 I haven't had one, and
have since started again to enjoy life, eat what I want
all the old triggers, Cheese, Chocolate etc
I must say I thanked the man times and times again.
I reside in Toronto Canada, the Neurology clinic
I went to is downtown, I do not know if I am allowed
to release the name of the Doctor, but you have my prescription above.
Try another physician, or try to see a Neuro, and relate to him my experience.
To quote the Neuro I saw, " we do not know why Lithium works
but I have had some success with it"
trust that this will help
Good Luck
Dominique
