  1. JUST GOT OFF PHONE WITH OXYGEN CO. I WAS WRONG!!! HUMANA MY INS. CO. WON'T AUTHORIZE UNLESS IT IS RESPIRATORY!!!
  2. I finally got authorization for O2. I was sleeping today and missed call from O2 Co. Already started D3 regimen 10,000 IU a day; should I take more? Tomorrow going shopping for fish oil. I tried amitriptyline as preventive a long time ago and I couldn't do it, the higher that milligrams the worse the adverse side effects, I stopped at 30 milligrams. No, have never tried Trex. I am chronic and the only prescription drug that works for me to stop the pain is Relpax/Eletriptan, very expensive even with insurance ( $12.88 per one pill) never tried injections nor have I been offered them by any neuro.
  3. Hello I'm new here. I was diagnosed by neurologist with cluster headache / migraine, a year-and-a-half ago after having been to dentist, ear nose and throat doctor, and Oral Maxillofacial. The only medication that touches this pain without any side effects is Relpax/Eletriptan. What I don't understand is why is most of my pain, about 80 to 90% only located deep inside my cheek right above my upper back tooth? Is this symptom part of Cluster pain?? Not sure if this is common or not? Or if it even is part of cluster headache pain?? I also just made an appt. with a Neurosurgeon today.
  4. Spiny, believe me I am trying to get the oxygen! But the office staff at the doctor's office never want to do their job and call the insurance company's so I've had to be on the phone all day today and I have to call them tomorrow and tell them what to do so that I can get an authorization.
  5. Hi Jon, well at least you only had it for 1 year, your first. I've been having it for 5 years straight. Which is why I thought I've been misdiagnosed and that maybe I should go back to an ENT, my nose is always stuffed up clogged up and I can't help but to keep thinking that it's a sinus related issue
  6. Hi there!, I want to see a neurosurgeon because I want to find other treatment, surgery, etc. I have been living with this pain for 5 years already....
