that s great it is working for you for the moment Nathan !Do you know if the 150 patients of PCH or POIS got totally cured with the flunarizine dihydrochloride? I will start the same treatment in 3 days for over 3 months, under the supervisiory control of my GP.
I have a confusion about whether I have POIS or Post Coital headche and for my condition doctor told that it is a Post Coital headche illness. So, please explain me whether my problem is a POIS by seeing the following symtoms. By Calcium Channel blocker, my POIS has clearing now, so I want to discuss with doctor on POIS vs Post Coital headche illness. When I am in POIS, I have the following symtoms,a) Brain fog, low concentration, low memory, Fatigue, burning in head, confusionb) Depressionc) Burning eyes, d) feeling imbalance in heade) Abnormal breathingf) High Anxieryg) Difficult to have eye contacth) Stammerting at the great extenti) Imbalance in sleep and excessive dreamingj) Emotional imbalanceh) Very rare occasion I also had throat infection.and I don't get any flu and physical symtoms.These symtoms will be there for atleast one months and very difficult to remove when attacked. Upto last 2 months, my symtoms as explained above. Please clarifiy to me.
and whats the logic behind using it??

I guess I haven't tried that either, I tried the claritin 24 hour, and like Prancer said you sometimes feel it the next day. Do you get the same reaction of feeling POIS the next day?And... on a last note... Does anybody experience sleeping problems like I do? I would like to know if it is related to POIS or not, or maybe it's just me being anxious because of this condition.I have had insomnia for many years, maybe around 12 years now. It is sleep maintenance insomnia where I wake in the middle of the night and sometimes have difficulty getting back to sleep. Stress is a definite contributor, if not the sole reason. What form of insomnia do you have GC?

I'm a new user so I apologize if somebody said this already...Okay so I used to expierence severe to mild brain fog and intense fatigue everytime I orgasmed. I started taking a Vitamin B-100 Complex 100mg for the fatigue before I orgasmed and two tablets of Lecithin 120 mg for the brain fog before and after orgasm. Been "cured" ever since. Once again we are all different and react to different medication/supplements. Hope this helped
Hi everybody, I have good news. I've tried flunarizine (sibelium) as Nathan. I'M taking 10 mg each days since november 19th. On december 5th I had an O for the first time since two month. I had a normal night of 8 hours. The nightmares were very light. When I wook up the 6th, it was difficult but not as usually when I'm having an O. I was tired the 6th at work. I`m working in an office. Yesterday the 6th, I had a second O. I went to bed at 20 o'clock because I was very tired and I wake up at 6 this morning. So I sleep 10 hour last night. I would say that all my symptoms were gone by 10 o'clock this morning. Yesterday, I could felt a physical fatigue but about 50% mental fatigue that I have usually. Yesterday, I could felt my ganglion a bit but today absolutly nothing. IT's a lot more efficient than NIACIN. Today I had no irritability at all and no mental problem. It's a very big succes for me. I'M must say that the first 10 day that I began to take Sibelium, I was sleeping 10 hour a day and I was tired. But now it's OK. My doctor told me that by 8 weeks of taking Sibelium, I will be very hungry and could take 10-20 pounds. I will have to control myself not to eat too much. I'm continuing to take flunarizine and I 'll give more news later. I'm 53 yers old and I never felt good like that since 14 year the after I had an O. As I wrote on november 20th on this site, I'm taking citalopram for many years. Maybe i't for that reason that I was so tired de first 10 days of taking flunarizine.
Pseudoephedrine is a stimulant which encourages the body to produce adrenaline / epinephrine. This reduces the level of histamine, similar to the way getting an epi-pen injection counteracts a severe allergic reaction. You're basically shocking your system out of the POIS state. Yeah, it works but, as I said, I can't see this being a long term solution but it does feel a lot better than POIS
This would leave me feeling anywhere from moderately tired to frighteningly exhausted. Its probably difficult to imagine being so drained of energy that it would actually scare you, but it happened to me frequently
If someone were to use an epinephrine auto injector (like EpiPen), would this instantly clear his pois symptoms? I'm just wondering & not recommending that anyone try this by the way.

Maybe i't for that reason that I was so tired de first 10 days of taking flunarizine.I looked it up and that is one of the side effects of sibelium. Also do you have any physical symptoms like fatigue,and fluelike symptoms. Not saying this because of flunarizine success with some. But my first true O with another person produce the most most worst worst headache ever. I dont know how to explain it " the pain level felt like i busted a vein in my head and that pain lasted all day i couldnt get out of bed." The only problem is, it only happened that time and never since. And i did not notice any pois symptoms untill about three months from that day.
i took claritin-d 3 times already, and every time it worked.

Quote from: daveman on 20/01/2011 15:14:36How does the peanut alergy feel relative to POIS symptoms?I have a severe (life threatening) allergy to peanuts, and it feels nothing like POIS. The treatment (a shot of adrenaline) does not seem to have an effect on POIS symptoms. (If it does it probably helps a little, but there isn't enough evidence for me to say).However, this does not discredit Waldinger's hypothesis. Auto-immune reactions (e.g. lupus) can be quite different from normal allergic reactions.
