First, I would like to say thanks for showing me this board. What a blessing.
Secondly, the prednisone helped me alot but it was temporary as well. I got put on 60 mgs for 5 days and then a week later, for 7 days. The 7 day dose helped for about a week longer and I thought, wow, I'm finished with the headaches!
I really hope that today goes well and you get some kind of help. Gosh, have you thought of taking the meds I do? It might help. The professor here was really happy my GP doctor put me on Baclofen because its not addictive at all and then the GP was very happy that the professor put me on the Neurotin. I am wondering if those would help at all? It would be worth mentioning to your doctor. I can tell you they have given me enough relief that I can function much better through the pain.
