....thanks...if you've helped even one clusterhead, you've helped us all... .....Apria one of the big boys, you should be able to find locations pretty near anywhere. i used another, Lincare (Apria probably also has a similar travel program i used successfully). never looked at any reviews...seemed kinda pointless. made sure to get to know store managers personally so i was a face/person, and not just a patient number. important, as for whatever reason they churned managers. mostly made a difference in working with insurance and/or self pay and/or stocking issues (e.g. some don't wanna handle M-60 tanks) and/or updating computer systems that purged accounts (frustrating) for us "inactives" (read that clusterheads OUT of cycle). many of us have found it immensely rewarding to get to know and *hint: reward (tips, cookies, thank yous!) the unsung heroes at these O2 shops...the back room techs and delivery drivers. salt of the earth folks, who care about their patients and WILL go out of their way for you..... best jonathan

Of course. Reviews aren’t great - but any port in the proverbial storm.

"Soy sauce. Soy sauce also contains tyramine (migraine, sometimes CH trigger) and sometimes monosodium glutamate (MSG). MSG, which is used as an additive in many other foods, has been found to cause cramps, diarrhea and headaches. Additionally, soy has large amounts of salt, which can lead to dehydration – and, therefore, to headaches." (it aint the Na, its the dehy). Foods That Can Trigger Headaches - Penn Medicine

@spiny hey! Haven’t had the occurrence again since that Monday so I think it was a fluke. Unless my CH is in the process of switching sides? But I am staying far away from soy sauce/ high sodium foods for a while. It was quite debilitating. Still can’t get a hold of any MM relying on vitamin D and verapamil until I can get it. Last year my headaches were a breeze because I was on a really strict busting regimen. I’m convinced it’s the only preventative that works...for me at least. kat

My only suggestion is having cold energy drinks on hand to deal with the hit that comes after each intake. If you put it in a cup of ice, and drink it near the end, it might abort it before you have it happen.
