Congrats to the bride & groom!
You do know you just changed your whole world don't you?
It'll all be for the better now that you have a women to keep you

The only triggers I've ever noticed were beer :'(
and the odor of a partially smoked cigar in my shirt pocket. I don't do that anymore. I still smoke cigars a little at a time but no longer put them in my shirt pocket.

What do you mean, Arde? did you experience tripping? And what is NK?
I definitely experienced tripping. That was the point for me. I took enough seeds so that if they contained LSA I would know it, and if they didn't, I would also know that.
NK is just the brand name of the seeds on the seed rack at Lowes.

I put RC seeds in a baggie and gently smash them with a BFH. My last dose was with MG seeds. They are a lot harder than RC seeds to break up. I went through two baggies and some of them weren't broken up very well.
The whole reason for using MG seeds over RC seeds was an experiment to determine if the Heavenly Blues were Ipomea Violacia or not. I heard years ago that some of the major seed companies changed the species of MG that they were selling because of the increasing popularity of recreational use. I kind of doubt if it's true. I know if I were selling a product, I sure wouldn't change it because I was selling so much of it.
I started off by washing them with warm water in case they had been treated, let them dry, and smashed them. I then placed them in a small jar with a lid and soaked them in naptha for about a day and a half. This was done in an attempt to remove the crap in the seeds that cause nausea. I know from long ago recreational use that they make your stomach want to come up about 20 minutes after ingesting. Long ago I used to just pop about 300+ seeds into my mouth and chew them up. My stomach did an excellent job of extracting.
I kept the naptha outside, didn't want it in the house just in case. After soaking I filtered it through a coffee filter and let dry over night and the next day. The naptha is so light it dries fairly quickly. By now there was absolutely no odor of naptha at all. I then did the normal hour and a half soak in water and drank it, sludge and all.
I used about 250 seeds so that I could determine for sure whether the seeds contained LSA or not. After all, that was the whole purpose of doing this, that and it was time for another dose anyway.
After swallowing the whole thing, sludge and all, I can tell you that the NK seeds that are on sale here at Lowes definitely contain LSA.
I experienced no nausea at all and just a very slight amount of stomach cramping. The test was a definite success.

It seems CHs cause some changes in your head, or, some changes in your head cause CHs. For the first 59 years of my life it was rare as hens teeth for me to recall a dream. When I started getting the headaches every hour and a half at night it was during an intense dream. Immediately jump out of bed and suffer.
Since busting with LSA, things have greatly improved, to put it mildly. I still get the dreams even without the HAs. They're not a problem, kinda like a bonus life I guess. I find dream recall an interesting experience, but something in my head has definitely changed.
-
The hits after the first dose can be especially bad. The beast seems to come back with a vengeance. Fight back with the abortives, wait five days, and kick butt. It may take a while, but you'll get there and life will be beautiful again.

I have a set of oxy-acetylene tanks and have never had to tell them anything to get them refilled. They just assume you're using the O2 for gas welding, cutting, etc. unless you mention something different. Determine what size tank you want before going to the supplier, walk in the door and tell them. I don't think they even care unless you start talking about car bombs or something.
When I got mine many years ago, you had the option of purchasing the tanks or getting a twenty year lease. Don't know if it's still the same or not. Best bet would be to call a supplier and ask what the options are now.

   THE ATTORNEY
          Â
A very successful attorney parked his brand new Lexus in front of his office, ready to show
it off to his colleagues.
As he was getting out, a truck came along too closely and completely tore off the driver's
door.
Fortunately, a cop in a police car was close enough to see the accident and pulled up behind
the Lexus with his lights flashing.
Before the cop had a chance to ask any questions, the attorney started screaming
hysterically about how his Lexus, which he had just purchased the day before, was completely
ruined and would never be the same,no matter how any car body shop tried to make it new
again.
After the lawyer finally wound down from his rant, the cop shook his head in disbelief. "I
can't believe how materialistic you lawyers are," he said."You are so focused on your
possessions that you neglect the most important things in life."
"How can you say such a thing?" asked the lawyer.
The cop replied, "Don't you even realize that your left arm is missing? It was severed when
the truck hit you!"
"OH, MY GOD!!!" screamed the lawyer."My Rolex!"
-
Whoops!, you're right, fixed it.

Get a sawzall, you can modify your car in a few minutes so that O2 tank will fit.
As far as the difference between med. O2 and welding O2, there isn't any. I recall someone posting quite a while back here or on the other forum, that they used to refill'em, and they were both refilled from the same source.
-
I still don't understand why so many people insist on paying a doctor for a prescription for medical O2 when they can get the same O2 from a welders supply store for a small fraction of the price. Even considering insurance, the welding O2 costs less than an insurance premium.
Their are inexpensive sources of regulators, and the non-rebreather masks are also inexpensive.
I get the impression that too many younger docs. are really not much more than drug pushers for the pharmaceutical industry. Understandable in lawsuit happy USA I guess. Going by the book is a fairly safe way to make their income, although it may not be the best for the patient. There is a lot more I could say, but I won't. You all would get tired of listening to my rants just like my wife has.
PF days and nights to all.

Almost seems funny (if it wasn't so serious). Psilocybin and LSD, etc. are illegal because of the hallucinagenic trip you might get from them if you take more than a very small dose, as in our case. This trip might last 2-4 hours or so. And yet, there are a whole list of legal drugs (that don't seem to work nearly as well) who's list of side affects are a page long, last for weeks, and could potentially kill, or hospitalise ya.
Only governments could apply such backwards logic to a situation.
There logic is different than most peoples. It starts with financial considerations at the top of the list.

As far as the RC seeds go, what I gather so far is that I first put 50 or so (to start) in a glass of water.Replace the floating seeds.Then, grind them up with lemon juice.Let them dry, finally ingest.
No no, grind them up, soak for an hour, and either filter the sludge out and drink the liquid or drink it all, sludge and all. Some soak there seeds for two hours or more. The shot of lemon juice supposedly extracts more of the LSA from the seeds into the water. Anyway it does help the taste a bit.

In summary: Nitro fecking sucks for CH. Sad
Nitroglycerin is administered to induce a CH for research. It works, as you found out.

How have I not heard of this "beer test"?
Beats me. Beer test is kinda like playing Russian roulette.
-
Does this work for everyone?
does it matter how much you drink?
will this show miosis?
I can be PF for several weeks, think I'm safe, drink a 16 oz. can and deeply regret it about 15 or 20 minutes later. Other times it doesn't bother me a bit. I don't gamble with it very damn often. The headaches I get after drinking are the worst imaginable. I know I'll screw up and try it again in a few weeks when the weather warms up and a cold brew is irresistibly tempting. I'm kinda regretting it already.
The whole beer test thing seems to be "different strokes for different folks".
Good luck if you give it a shot.

If the legal status is "Not Scheduled" why can't we just buy it?
There's a lot going on behind the scenes that we aren't aware of. To make a long story short, I suspect it's about money.
The same thing has been taking place with DCA for cancer treatment.

If you clean them, you can make tea. If you don't clean them you can make stew. It's just a matter of personal taste. I cleanum.

I haven't yet. I think about the only way to get the stuff is to extract it from plant sources. It never has been a widely available drug. Unfortunately I'm not aware of a local plant to process it from.
Illinois Bundleflower seems to be the best bet for me. A little trip is in order.
From everything I've read about it, it seems N N DMT aborts a CH in about a minute or less. The waiting time between doses is as little as an hour rather than 5 to 7 days as with the other entheogenics.
It seems to be a great abortive, and I have wondered if it might not be a preventative as well.
Care must be taken with the dosing unless you want to get totally blown away, it's a very powerful hallucinogen, although the side effects are very short lived.
It being a natural brain chemical, would seem to be very safe to use as long as you are of sound mind.
Went to a lecture and slide show presented by Dr. Richard Schultes many years ago. He was in the Amazon jungle doing research. Seems the natives traveled to a large hut annually to spend several days using DMT. They heated large sections of a tree bark and the resin migrated to the inside portion where they scrapped it off. They used hollowed out bird leg bones to blow this snuff into each others nostrils.
I have every intention on trying it when circumstances allow.
You can extract it from a very common wild grass where you're located.
And, no, I'm not donning my loin cloth and heading for the Amazon.

[highlight]"Pharmaceutical companies don't like cures. Really, they don't—that's the sad thing. They like treatment. Something for cholesterol or high blood pressure that you [take] for years and years, every day. That's where the profit is."
[/highlight]
Therein lies the problem, not only for Ibogaine, but for LSA, psylocibin, LSD, or any other effective drugs that the pharmaceutical companies can't get patents on.
I've known of Ibogaine as a treatment for addictions for many years now, and things haven't progressed at all as far as legality. I think more and more people are becoming aware of the effectiveness of the entheogenic drugs as treatments for migraine and cluster headaches. What do you think the chances are that they will ever be legalized? I think 'fat chance'.
BOL may eventually make it to market, but what will be the price? I for one am not willing to pay an arm and a leg for a drug whose only advantage is avoiding what I consider to be a pleasant experience.
I noticed the pricing on those Mexican drug clinics. A round trip to Africa would be cheaper (and safer).
Thanks for the links, very informative.

My ex-mother in law always insisted that my "migraine" would be cured if I used coffee/garlic enemas.???
From everything I've read so far on this and the other forum, that might actually work if combined with doing a headstand and placing ice packs in the armpits.
Please research and report back.

The link gave me a 404, but I think I found it. This it?

I've been using Herb Pharm (1:2) extract that I bought at an HEB grocery store here in Houston for $9.95. Just this morning depleted the bottle, so time for another trip to the store.
My experience has been a decrease in the intensity and duration of the CHs. Normally I'll awake in pain, get up immediately and chug down an energy drink. Gets kind of rough drinking those at night when you're trying to sleep.
Several nights ago had the experience of the headache going away before I had even finished the drink. Kinda pissed me off as I felt like I had wasted an energy drink.
Another thing, last Tuesday evening I took the licorice about thirty minutes prior to a 60 RC seed dose, my second dose. I definitely felt the effects of the LSA, something I hand't noticed in my previous doses of RC seeds.
By the way, the Herb Pharm product is "Certified Organically Grown" according to the label.
Really can't tell if the licorice extract is having an effect on the CHs or not as I have been successfully using the RC seeds for prevention for quite a while now. One thing that does seem different now is the lessening of the duration of the post dose headaches.
I had been relatively PF for several months. I don't do a regular dosing schedule with the seeds. I usually take three dose of 60 spaced a week apart when these damn HAs start hammering me. This last bout started 4 days after I had gotten some kinda virus resulting a cough, lung congestion and just generally feeling like crap. This is also the time I started using the licorice.
Pardon the rambling post, I just naturally tend to ramble.
Well, off to the store, PF days & nights to all.

Well, this might be what you mean, and I might just be being picky, Bryan, but I don't care much one way or another about full legalization--all I care about is, selfishly, availability for people it will help. In that sense, I don't feel very subversive at all. Full legalization is, for me, a whole 'nother very interesting but secondary discussion.
Amen to that.
All I really care about is that the treatment works.
