Welcome Mike! Sorry that you had to look us up but sure glad that you found us. Like I'm sure you have found, there is ALOT of information here that will take many hours to read but well worth it! Grab a seat (not the one next to Jonny .. he can be a handful at times), a cup of coffee and relax while you look around and meet some of the other nuts sufferers.

Welcome aboard Mike! I am a tough old Fat man, and i still get tears in my eyes from time to time. We all say the same thing, We are sorry you are here because of your pain but we are happy you found us. Lots of great information here and at O.U.C.H., Find CatLind or Don, they will assign you your own personal oar, get rowing dude, i am getting tired!

Hi Mike:
Welcome and if you look around you'll find some good ideas about handling this horror.
I too did my share of slobbering. For me, the guest book was the worst.
Here are two links: One for a technique I found effective and a second link to a description of this disease which does a wonderful job explaining to employers and others that this has nothing to with what is thought of as a “headache.”
http://www.netsync.net/users/charlies/
http://www.ouch-uk.org/ch/note_colleagues.cfm
Good luck and stick around.
Charlie

"left"....."right" ..."left" ::grabbing oar::
its nice to have a outlet for all the years of fustration...
i am seeing a new md today, my old doctor was fired for having an affair with one of his secretaries... so i wanted to see if their was any thing else out there besides imitrex...
currently i use a 20mg nasal imitrex, which cuts about 85% off in 15-20minutes...
i also use 1000mg vicoden for night time or when im not working. However, i think i get these "rebound" headaches from them....(new info from this site)...just need to make through the night.
thanks for the warm welcome,
mike

If you want to try and make it through the night, try taking plain ole dramamine. Many folks have had wonderful results with taking a dramamine before going to bed
Glad you found us, now read read and read some more. Then hit the button on the left and join OUCH and do some more reading

Did you say 1000 ml of vicodien.....holy crap.......doesn't that make ya all burnt out in the morning or groggy....or cravein for more ! I didn't know you could even take that much at one time. My oxycontin is only 5 ml.........I'm afraid ta take em very often thinkin the doc may say 'no more'......(dunno why he'd do that tho) but they help relieve my ha's and back pain a while...(not ch) So maybe I shouldn't worry and mine aren't that strong ta be of paronoid concern. Sheww 1000 ml's sound like ALOT !!! Be careful ! Pam that hates long term pain

Welcome Mike!
Hope this site changes your life (for the better) like it did for a bunch of us.
Loads of super info here. I think if someone asked for the "Caramilk secret", the answer would come up within a day. But I am not asking...
