Ave.........no, Im not ten times as tough as the rest of you......I didnt mean to inply that I am....I was just relating a story.....let me tell you something....I have had Kip 10's at work and had to continue teaching....people dont come in to relive you two to three times a day for months because you tell them you have a brutal "headache".....Im sure all of us just continue on the best we can....I was a guest in a group of four and could not leave the golf course....it would not have been the right thing to do....besides, not one of the other players would have understood what I was going through....also....I have been in much worse places ( while gettin hit with a CH) and have been in much worse circumstances, as Im sure we all have....again.....I'm not any tougher than anyone.....would I have rather have been home at the time?....yes......Tony 18/6

I am with Ave on this one. I have preached we have to go on with life. I have fought many Kip 10 in my life and I had to stop what I was doing. Maybe a golf game is different. I got hit playing golf. My eye water so bad I couldn't see and I couldn't think enough to hold the golf club. All I could think about was how to get off the corse myself. I worked the front office of a vets office for years had to greet people coming in. If I got hit I couldn't stay I had to excuses myself and let the Doc work the office till I was over it. I did work with shadows and a low level cluters, but to tell you the truth I didn't get hit with many low levels in my life. Most all hit level 10 to start with. Everyone is different they say!

Me too. I used to get hit at antique shows, restaurants and while riding in a van. Fortunately, Dave was a nurse and knew what this horror was. He said he saw it all the time at the State hospital where he worked. He described it almost as well as most of us here. Amazing. Charlie

Brad got hit 'hard' alot at horse shows when we were both raceing.....he couldn't continue and had to tie up his horse and go lay in the truck about an hour or two and I'd scratch his classes for him. Not sure anyone understood back then what was goin on cuz neither of us knew what it was at that time. Plus animals sense stuff goin on so it wasn't a safe thing to continue when bein hit hard like he was and feeling as he did. CH has no boundries Pam

Tony...I don't think anyone was doubting that you continued through your Kip 10 while playing golf or while teaching, my thoughts on this are that everyone has different pain tolerances...one person's kip 10 may be anothers kip 6 who knows...maybe you've been really lucky and only ever had kip 6's and cos they're the worst you've ever had they are your kip 10's, but when Wes has had a kip 10 he wouldn't have given a flying duck if the Queen of England had been on the golf course he'd have been at her feet banging his head on the ground...!

I dunno.....I've seen Mike run his finger through a table saw, right back to the first knuckle and ....that HAD to hurt, ok? But he sloughed it off. Numerous injuries like that over the years have hardly even put a dent in his day. No big deal. This guy's pain tolerance is incredible. (I think any clusterhead could pop out a 12 pound baby and not blink an eye, actually.) But, the times i've seen my husband hit a genuine Kip 10? No freakin way could he continue what he was doing......driving, speaking, golfing....life as we know it, grinds to a halt. Whether it's the right thing to do or not! I was with Elaine when she got hit on that golf course, gang - and I did everything in my power to hustle her off to the parking lot. Clusterheads NEED to hibernate. ...actually, looking back, I'm wondering now if maybe my twisted sister was just a shill for our caddy (DJ) so that he could fill in for her, the lil sandbagger. DJ got a birdie.

OK, maybe I'm just a wimp - because there is no way that I could continue doing anything remotely coherent with a Kip 10 - and I've never met a Clusterhead (yet) who can. Marc

| Tony--My CH's started when I was teaching HS and I can relate, although, I was **lucky** enough to get hit only at home. Funny how mine started the year I started teching HS...but wait...I still get CH's and have moved on to database administration. No correlation, dammit. TomM

| I guess I join you Marc, the only way I could focus on anything but the pain is if someone fucked with me while in kip 10...in that case I would focus real well with pain driven anger to kill them. I guess CH would be no defense in court, huh? ...................................jonny

I totally agree with the no golf during a kip 10. During my 10's there is no 'conscious' thought.....period, much less anything that required basic motor skills. My golf game doesn't have much hand/eye coordination going on with it anyway. It could possibly help my game. on May 21st, 2003, 4:39pm, jonny wrote:I guess CH would be no defense in court, huh? |

Cathy has given the best description that I've ever seen for the difference in pain tolerance and the Kip numbers. Kip 10's (I remember having a few during my 6 wk cycles, mostly 8 & 9's) would find me just about out of my mind and wimpering...no way in any shape to carry on a conversation.
