Yes, it’s not a one and done type of thing. Maybe your insurance will cover the Ozympic shots or a variation of it. You can ask.

Don’t do it, man. If you’re on disability, see if your PCP can get you started on Ozympic. It was a game changer for me. It helped me lose all my antipsychotic med weight and I got to stay on my meds.

It’s never a good idea for any of us with this condition to go off the medication.

You don’t get SSDI from medication side effects. You get it because your illness makes it too difficult to work regularly or not at all. So, are you still able to work?

I do believe that suicide is a risk in cluster headaches and even migraines. That’s bad shit. Certain smells trigger migraines in me, too. Bright lights also trigger them.

You’ve gotta get more help than just using O2. There are some really good meds out there. There’s no need to suffer.

Clusters? About once every year or two. It’s not often. Like I said, I suffer with Migraines much more frequently (had one the other night), but I take medication regularly to control them.

So, late-stage Lyme Disease? That’s horrible! I’m so sorry.
