  2. I have come across the same issues in the past. I am not sure what country you are in, Here in the US I keep on calling and climbing the latter going from one level a=of management to the next until I find someone who understands that money is money and it does not matter who is paying as long as they are getting paid for the services they are trying to provide. I also pay out of pocket and it is actually cheaper for me. I pay a monthly fee for the home delivery service and I pay that regardless if I get oxygen. That covers 4 M60 tanks. I can order more and pay a different rate depending on the size tank I order above the 4 M60's. Smaller Mom and Pop type shops I find get the same tanks from the larger distributers and usually only get one order a week so they don't like Clusterheads cleaning them out every week so go direct to the larger supply house and deal with them direct. Be extra nice to the delivery person bringing the tanks and you will be able to get extra tanks from them on occasion if they have them on the truck. Stock up on as many extra tanks as you can store for when something goes sideways. Don't accept the "we don't serve cluster headache people" What do they care what it is used for, they are selling it and we are paying for it. The Market down the street does not care how much milk you buy why would the oxygen people care how much O2 your getting as long as you pay the price they are asking. This makes me nuts how they think they can just say no because we use more oxygen at times than others. Your other option would be to get welding oxygen and use that, but do not tell that supplier you will be breathing it. We can help you get set up with that equipment if you do decide to give it a try.

  4. I see what you are saying now. I went and made sure to read the label on my pills, and thankfully the 1 capsule is the full 400mg. Since the regimen has been effective for me so far, I'll keep doing what I'm doing now. I'll consider changes in the future if I see any worsening cycles. I'm hoping to find a PCP who's more receptive to this regimen by then. Anyways, appreciate all the information. And good luck to you, brother. Good luck to us all.

  5. I just made a post today that I've been 33 days attack-free after adding Zyrtec (one time a day) and 1-2 drops of a 2:1 CBD/THC tincture (every few hours). I then started searching the site to see if anyone else had tried this, and came across your posts. I also saw that you posted about the possibility that they might come back if I take the tincture everyday. I will have to look into that. Thanks!
