@CHfather.....in my opinion these terms are somewhat blurred.....the amounts we suggest are, in my mind, sub hallucinogenic but that doesn't mean there's not an effect....as someone who has experienced recreational doses as high as 7g, I can assure you that the effects from that amount are indeed hallucinogenic!! In contrast,my typical busting dose is 1.5 to 2.2g which produces distorted open eye and closed eye visuals but the experience is far short of being truly hallucinogenic!!
Microdosing is considered to be sub perceptual and for that reason alone I don't believe that clusterheads will ever see that to have any significant efficacy.
However, they may find that a sub perceptual dose by itself, or coupled with therapy, is efficacious for other afflictions especially in children.

Thanks for posting this. I am always interested in new developments. Truthfully I was not aware that psilocin converted to psilocybin after breaching the blood brain- barrier.
@BoscoPiko actually, the primary substance contained in dried vitamin M is psilocybin which is what's known as the prodrug of psilocin......this conversion is normally achieved in the gut as stomach acid breaks down the shrooms.....once converted, the psilocin has the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and moves out of the stomach and into the blood stream.
I never took chemistry in school so I don't understand these processes well, but from what I've read, this conversion process is called dephosphorylation.....on the molecular level it amounts to removing one phosphor atom from the psilocybin molecule.
When you dose using the lemon-tek method this conversion is accomplished by mixing dried, powdered M with lemon juice...so when you drink the lemon-tek mixture after soaking for 20 minutes, the psilocin can immediately transfer out of the stomach and into the blood vessels.
As to the scope of the research, while the sub hallucinogenic doses may prove effective for some ailments, I believe clusterheads will require a larger dose to see any efficacy!

@Cindi I can just imagine what it must be like to have such a late onset of this terrible affliction!! About to turn 76 myself but I've had almost 40 years to get used to this nonsense!!
I need help, hope, words of encouragement or wisdom??
Being so early on in your diagnosis, my best advice is probably H.O.P.E...Hold On Pain Ends!!
Wishing for some pain-free time for you soon!

It's always exciting to read of these new developments, however, this particular piece raises a lot of questions for me!
Of the 5 major psychoactive substances in vitamin M, psilocin is the only one capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier and from every thing I've ever read, is very unstable after its conversion from psilocybin.

as for conference thanks I didn't know anything about it . It's only 2 hour drive away
So happy to see you're going to attend this inaugural event @Shaun brearley!!
I'll never forget my first patient conference in Portland in 2010!
Be sure and give my good friend and our vice president of clusterbusters.org, Lady Ainslie, a big hug from me!
And BTW, I second the jeebsters notion of your sharing your story if they have openings for speakers dude!! If you'd be up for it I can definitely put Ainslie in touch with ya bud!

I'll chime in with a ditto on the need for a neurologist (preferably one who's also a headache specialist) and an MRI!!
The thing that stood out to me in your last comment is the length of your 3.5 hour attack last night!! Ima go out on a limb here and assume that you're not using high flow O2 to abort your attacks??? I've experienced those long assed hits before I found out about O2 so I would urge you to push for a script when you get in to see a neuro doc!!

Hey ya'll!!
Been a minute since I've posted!! It's been a hectic few months since my Dad's passing but things are finally starting to slow down so hope to have a little more time for the forum!!
Had hoped to be in Chi Town today, (hung over from last nites presidents reception and shenanigans that inevitably follow), but couldn't get the stars to align so just want to wish everyone safe travels and a great conference experience!! DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT participate in the chip challenge if invited!! Lmao!!

Thought this might interest those of ya that incorporate energy shots with O2 to abort.....a good clusterhead buddy came for a visit this weekend and told me about these.....called Pure Kick and available here in okieland at Dollar General, 6 pkts for a buck!!! Charles just mixes one in a bathroom sized Dixie cup and keeps it in the fridge....tosses it, hits the O2, aborts, and mixes another shot before he goes back to bed and sez they work just as well as the 99 cent shots that DG carries!

They just need to add a feature that let's them record what your minds eye is seeing.....hell, I want a recording of my open eye visuals as well!!! Be cool to be able to watch in VR on occulus without the bodyload of an actual journey!!

Happy New Year ya'll! Hope everyone enjoyed the celebration......meh, I turned off the tube, put on my jammies, and went to bed at 8:30!
So , I ran across this poem by our very own @Fast Eddie ....I'm fairly certain it's posted here but it's been a long time.....I first heard it at either the Portland conference in 2010 or Las Vegas in 2012 when Eddie recited it....great poem by a great guy!
‘We call each other clusterheads"
by Eddie LangfordThere are many types of headaches
I'm sure you've had your share
From stress and strains and migraines
To a sinus one here and thereBut let me tell you about one friend
That puts them all to shame
This headache is a demon
And a cluster is it's nameTo see a full blown cluster
Is a very scary sight
It can happen in a moments time
No matter day or nightIt is the worst pain known to man
It will put us on our knees
We pray someone will knock us out
And give us some reliefWe call the start a shadow
A sensation in the brain
That says "the demons coming back"
To taunt us once againThe brain turns into cornmeal mush
The eyeball starts exploding
We moan and cry and rock our heads
There’s no doubt how bad we're hurtingWe call each other clusterheads
Our tiny little crew
Of others who are just like us
Who know what we go through
So please don't say you understand
Just what we're going through
Unless you are a clusterhead
You haven't got a clueDD
