Jobo have hit the nail on the head as far as triptans are concerned. They have there place in are God forsaken world , but God so easy to over use because they are right there and can give such great relief in minutes , but over use means prolonged cycle rebound attacks simple as that .Been there done it !!!!!!! Not a good place to be . I jabbed at every sign of an attack a few years ago,I just didn't want to face the pain , I had o2 but didn't really know how to use it . I found this forum a few years ago know ,I've learnt so much . I'm off the triptans just like @BoscoPikoand have learnt how to manage my CH. Again just like bosco I do carry a triptan around with me when I'm out and about if I'm in cycle .Don't want to be thrashing about on the floor bang my head on the ground ,Will end up in a straight jacket (again)
