  1. Any King readers in this forum ? I know he has often stated having migraines but just about always I read a headache description in his books these days clusters come to mind. Anyone have similiar thoughts ? Should he not have heard of clusters would not be unheard of.

  2. No. Tanks get refilled and reused, although when a supplier brings you more O2, they bring you a different tank and take the one you have back to be refilled and eventually given to someone else. Or, if your question is different -- you will use the same tank for multiple aborts. Tanks come in different sizes, holding different amounts of oxygen. The number of uses depends on many factors, including how much O2 is in the tank and how fast you use the O2 that's in the tank (this is called the "flow rate" and it is measured in liters per minute). With a really, really big tank, a person might get five hours of use. With the smaller tank (called an E tank), a person might get something like 30 minutes.

  3. So, those are all things that have been tested (some of them extensively) related to migraine, because there is a logic that says they should help. This is an odd quote from a journal article about three of your four ingredients: "The prophylactic properties of other agents such as magnesium, riboflavin, and coenzyme Q10 are low at best, but their lack of severe adverse effects makes them good alternative treatment options." Like Pebbles' said, this seems to be arguing (regarding migraine), "They probably won't help much, but they can't hurt much, either." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4359851/ Maybe in combination something good happens. I know we have had enthusiasts for each of these elements at different times at the board, and I think studies have shown that magnesium supplementation can be valuable for CH.
