hi urs,
have to congratulate you - made the same experience with my c/h.
i'm about 40 yrs. old and suffer with c/h since tree yrs. my triggers are alcohol,(perhaps because of containing sugar or histamine), chocolate, nuts, cheese and watching tv.
since i'm trying to take care of my meals (no bread or milk in the evening and so on) i'ts much more better with the attacks of c/h.
at the moment my neuro gave me nimotop to prevent the attacks of c/h - and it works great. no attack since 7 days - before i had attacks daily - but only in the night (between 1 - 2 a.m.) i also didn't go to bed before - only to be able to take an "aspro" (which abortes the pain, when i take it early enough)
nearby: would like to correspond with you by e-mail, because my mothertongue is also swiss german. i live in austria at the swiss boarder and i would like to share my experience with you.
good luck and a painfree time
boernie
p.s. i'm in vacation starting with 8.th of august til 23.rd of august
