My reference below to the posts of failure being in the archives was referring to posts of my own failure, in answer to David's comment:
"BTW, is there anyone who has tried mushrooms without success? (oh, and you better be in the archives as having posted before and not some do-gooder looking to steer me away from the 'evils'."
You're correct in your comment that I will continue to support the shroom treatment. I encourage everyone to give it a try. It's had too many success stories to not try it. I've even considered growing a second crop just to send to people who want them (I'm a little leary since during my last growing season, a city attorney came by the house investigating a police abuse claim from the kid accross the street. The attorney was in my bedroom checking to see what kind of view I had of the incident accress the street. The whole time my crop was in the clear plastic tub in the corner of the room, in plain site. I was a little worried).
I take the 'whatever works, go for it' stance when it comes to clusters. I would bet, though, that anyone who has slammed down 60 mg of prednisone in one day has had an equal amount of success as the shrooms. Granted it's usually a temporary relief.
In conclusion, most of my post was aimed at David's post which is full of attitude and mis-statement. 'You guys can hang around here and whine and feel sorry for yourself but I'm taking shrooms which deal with the cause of CH, not the symptoms.' My post in response was really just a nice way of saying, BLOW IT OUT YOUR ASS DAVID!!!
