Hello all,
It's been awhile since I posted here. I have suffered from chronic CH's for 15 years. I don't have remissions. I have 4-6 attacks every day. I have applied and been turned down for SSI twice. I finally got a lawyer and appealed. I now have a hearing scheduled with a Judge next week. I was wondering if you great people could clue me in on what to expect. What tips can you all give me?
Back to my headaches...I take Verapamil 240 SR 3 times a day. It decreased my CH's from all day to 4-6 attacks a day. My Neuro has tried me on every med know with no results. Nothing works, and I am at wits end. I awake at night sometimes...(disturb the entire house) by bouncing around, jogging, jumping, screaming, crying, cursing, banging, etc.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
