Jim, Call your Dr. and tell him what's going on and ask him to go to his cabinet where he keeps all the samples from the pharmacy reps. and to give you Imitrex or whatever you think will work. And don't forget strong coffee and ice packs. Good luck LindaH

Thank God, the O2 took care of it pretty fast. But it doesn't bode well for the coming summer. I want to go out on my boat, GD it! I never even got to winterize it last year because of these MF's! 2 months off is all! (and my heart and prayers go out to you chronics - I don't know how you DO IT!) and it SUCKS! He never REALLY leaves does he? I think I had a premonition that he was near-by..... -Jim R

Oh Jim, I'm a red headed Celt and am sending kick ass PF vibes to you. I pray this is a fluke. I'd think Don's offer would be enough to get you to fight the Beast and sail the boat to see him   Keep us posted and do not let the Fear take over! Kate

Really sorry to hear that Jim. Praying it is just a random hit, but you can handle it either way. Sometimes I think it is easier being chronic, (although I wouldn't mind trying episodic again just to be sure). At least we know we will be hit, and don't have to dread it coming on and messing up our plans. BTW, is that the missing OUCH yacht you have? ;D praying for you, jc

Jim, I realize you're in pain now and probably scared that you're in for a bad time, soI am gonna help you. As far as it comes to sailboats or anything related to wood on water...........trust no one, especially Don. He has an ulterior motive. LindaH

Sorry to read this Jim. Hopefully it is just a fluke and will pass soon. Sending prayers and vibes your way to force the SOB to move is unwelcome a ss along.

Jim - as with everyone else here, I'm sorry to hear that the beast is visiting you again. Stay strong and keep having fun as much as you can. Take that O2 on the water with you and sail to your hearts content. Keep the faith - Mia

Thanks again everyone. You know, I was thinking what might have been a trigger last night. It was my first day on a plethora of new drugs or increased dosages. Let's see: NEW: clarinex, celebrex, klonopin, tizanidine, protonix. INCREASED DOSAGE: verapamil IN ADDITION TO: hydrochlorothiazide, clonodine (catapres), lipitor, and aspirin. You see I am 48 and apparently falling apart. I guess I'm lucky I just don't explode with all these chemicals coursing through my arteries! ;D Jim R
