New member, looking for Sid

Hi all,

Newbie here. As I don't know the forum ettiquitte I will be as discrete as possible.

I am now entering my 12th straight month of CH. I guess i'm officially chronic after a few years of being episodic. The frequency and intensity of the headaches are also much worse than previous episodes.

The skinny, one of my (numerous) doctors has advised me that he has patients that have done very well with Sid.

I've exhausted all of my contacts trying to find Sid, or the fun guys he hangs out with. If anyone can help locate either one of them for me, I would be most graciously appreciated.

I am 33, and from NY City. I hung out with Sid and the fun guys when I was younger, so I know how deep they roll  :D

Thank in advance. And more importantly, I send sincere wishes of good health and happiness for everyone.

Stay strong,

Zip

Zip,

Sorry to hear your condition has worsened.  You're in good company here regarding what you're going through.

I'd recommend Oxygen as an abortive and many use the seeds option (HBWR or RC) for cycle termination.  I for one wouldn't mind the option you mention as I've heard it comes without the nausia and stomach cramps HBWR has.  Good luck finding it, but if unsuccessful you might try some of the vendors listed on this site for HBWR or RC.

Hey zipzip,

Sorry to hear about your chronic status, but hats off to your doctor for mentioning Sid (what an extreme rarity for me to say something positive about a doctor! :D)

I bet, like many other chronics here, you've tried every prescription pharmaceutical under the sun by now. Well you came to the right place, because these alternatives really work for the majority of those who've tried them.  :)

Hang tight, more dedicated, knowledgeable folks will undoubtedly be along to advise you.

Meanwhile, I concur with jeff about the value of O2 as an abortive. Not the low liter flow with rebreather mask way of administering O2 that is still prescribed by doctors, but the newer, power user style of O2 that unlike that wimpy low flow baloney really works!  :) here's the O2 info link if you haven't seen it yet: http://www.clusterheadaches.com/O2/index.html

So you can order RC seeds legally right this moment and be trying them in a day or two. Or as far as what some of us consider to be a more powerful treatment - mushrooms - is concerned, the worst case scenario I can see for you there is that you could order spores (legally) and start growing them right away.

Very pertinent links for all of this have been compiled into the *BUSTING INSTRUCTIONS* sticky topic in the section above the other other topics by our fabulous Dallas Denny. Here's the link for that: http://www.clusterheadaches.com/cb/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1298051886

Welcome home Zipzip.  8-)

Wait, what's Sid slang for? I missed the boat on that one. (....I just figured it out. LSD. LOL.)

Welcome home Zipzip! I've been chronic for 2.5 years. I've tried every drug that they could try me on. (and had godawful reactions to most of 'em.)

The RC seeds have helped me SO MUCH. I'm like you, my cycle has just gotten worse, and worse as it's gone on. After almost 3 years, I finally understand again what it's like to have a kip level 1 hit... And that's saying something. The RC seeds are awesome.

Welcome, good luck, and PFDAN's for you soon hopefully!
