mit12 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 So what does a person with Clusters take for ED that don't make the Beast angry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatHurtsMyHead Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Ladies on the board, feel free to skip over my post This one's for the guys. Mit12, Good question. 1) First thing I'd think, is diet change. Reducing blood pressure (if you have high blood pressure), is the #1 cause of ED (is my understanding). 2) This might sound off, so apologies if it is, but porn? Something to rev the engines before engaging. 3) Another thing that only works short term (very short term), is an amino acid called L-Arginine. It helps if taken daily for 2 to 3 days ahead of an anticipated encounter . If you take it regularly, it'll completely stop working after a few weeks. ok, since I'm on a roll, here's another, that might seem odd. Vasectomy. When I used condoms, I had the hardest time keeping 'up'. Had a vasectomy a few years ago, and poof... No problems since. For me sensation when using a condom just wasn't there at all. Once I got that barrier out of the way of actually feeling the intercourse, it's been nothing but good ever since. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mit12 Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Thanks ThatHurtsMyHead, So I gather that what you are saying is none of the ED drugs that play good with the beast? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brew Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 They (the ED drugs) are vasodilators. Kind of the opposite of the direction we want to go when we're having an attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatHurtsMyHead Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Mit12, I've been preventative dosing for over 4 years now. I've had 2 cycles come in, out of nowhere. Both were VERY hard to stop, and both started within a week of taking 2 doses of cialis. I'd be pretty confident in saying I would have been 100% pain free the last 4+ years, had I not taken the Cialis. I've read similar stories from others that have taken Viagra. Give the L-Arginine a try. It works pretty good. Not as good as Cialis or Viagra, but I didn't get any CH attacks or cycle starts when I tried it. A nurse friend of mine was taking it on occasion and told me about it. Just you can't take it for very long or it completely stops working.

ThatHurtsMyHead Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Didgens, I don't think vaso dialation is the cause, it's just one of many triggers. Cause of CH remains ukn. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
didgens Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 THMH I believe that there are multiple triggers of vaso dialation ,, but imitrex which is a vaso consctictor as are O's seems to stop them .. I am probably the only one who thinks there is something structurally different in the CH sufferer. but that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
