Gettin tired of "dancin"

Hi guys,
Just coming out of quite a sock-hop in my brain. Hit about a 7.62 on the Kip, lasted a good 2 hours, ouch.
2 Zomig in 2 hours has me back to heavy ghosting which is about a 2 on the Kip. Whew.
This spell has been going on for the best part of 30 days now and during that time I been taking Imitrex Injection, Zomig, and Maxalt. I have not exceeded the suggested dosage for any of this but I have been right up against the limit.
HD coming about 12 hours apart.
I am wondering if I may be suffering some rebound from all of this medicine in the last month. If so, how does one know if its rebound or just another f*ckin HD.
Fighting the good fight,
Mark

I could be all wet here ... but my doc told me if the headaches are at least three hours apart they couldn't be rebounds. At least with the Imitrex ... the meds are already out of your system. Have you tried the O2? Works for me if I get it before it gets to bad Just a thought.
Here's hoping for pain free days and nights to ya !!!!!

The way one knows if it's a rebound or a CH is that rebound HA pain is nothing at all like CH pain.

In my experience, there is nothing like CH pain. Rebound headaches suck, for sure, but they don't bat in the same league as the CH boys... I'm pretty sure there's some major doping up on the CH team... those fuckers never lose.

Guess I am lucky enough to have never had a rebound then ..... but I am still new to this. I just get the real whackers or the shadows .... nothing inbetween.

Thanks all for the replys,
It looks like I may not be having rebound HA. They are at least 4-8 hours apart. Just a bucha hurtin'.
Down to about a 1 Kip ghost right now. I did manage to get about 4 hours sleep last night / this morning. Had about a K-6 wake me up. 10mg Maxalt got a hold on it for now.
I am going to Neuro in a couple of hours, maybe something there will help.
I have not tried O2 so that is on the list.
We did manage to get HMO to pre-approve Zomig yesterday with GP help.
I am going to talk with Neuro about trying some combinations of preventive today. Maybe I can hit a working combo like Jonny.
DRK^A, thanks for the help, these ain't rebound, they are the real thing, ouch.

Thanks guys and gals,
