Teric is new to the site and is in need of some vibes.
Teric has been having a tough time, meds dont seem to work so far.
Sorry we had to meet, but welcome to Clusterville. I hope you get some help here and find relief.
PF wishes

Teric, I hope that this site is of help to you. And I know that you will find many caring people here. This site is a lifesaver! It's just comforting to know that people share this same inconvenience that you do and know what you are going through. Welcome to the family!

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

Welcome aboard and sorry you have to deal with this horror. You'll lots of good ideas and ways to deal with this thing. Lots of lunacy and lots of help.
Here is one idea:
Dr. Wright’s Circulatory Technique:
I am not sure what mechanism is triggered by this but whatever it is, at least indirectly helps kill the pain. I do know that this technique has nothing to do with meditation, relaxation, or psychic ability. It is entirely physical and takes some work. It involves concentrating on trying to redirect a little circulation to the arms, hands, or legs. It can described as a conscious circulatory flexing. Increased circulation will result in a reddening and warming of the hands. Try to think of it as filling your hands with redirected blood. The important and difficult part is that it has to be done without interruption through the pain. Do not give up in frustration. It may not work on the first try. Every now and then it will work almost immediately. I lived for those moments. Try experimenting between attacks. You will find that it gets easier with practice.
I was given less than five minutes instruction in the use of method. The doctor, while placing his arm on his desk, showed me that he could slightly increase his arm and hand circulation. After several attempts, I was able to repeat this procedure and use it successfully. I have had about a 75% success rate shortening these attacks. My 20 minute attacks were often reduced to 10 minutes or less. Once proven that I had a chance to effectively deal with this horror, I always gave it a try as I had nothing to lose but pain.
Perhaps it will help if you think of it as trying to fill the arm as if it is were an empty vessel. I used to try to imagine I was pushing blood away from my head into my arm. Use your imagination. There is one man who wrote that his standing barefoot on a concrete floor shortened his attacks. This may be similar as it draws some circulation away from the head. Cold water, exercise, or anything affecting circulation, seems to be worth a try. My suggestion is to not let up immediately when the pain goes. Waiting a minute is probably a good idea. So long as you do not slack off, this has a chance of working.
This technique is very useful while waiting for medication to take effect or when none is available. It costs nothing, is non-invasive, and can be used just about anywhere. It is not a miracle but it helped me deal with this horror. It can be a bit exhausting but the success rate was good enough for me and a cluster headache sufferer will do just about anything to end the pain. It gives us a fighting chance.

Better post Teric to shut up these twerps.
Don sucks you know and both Jonny and he can use all the help they can get with their gender reinforcement issues. 
Don't even get us started on Clusterchuck. Actually, we don't wanna fool with that too much. We are all working on papers.

Yeah, i dont know what the deal is. I got 1 message 2 nites ago, then last night i got like 3 more messages. I told him/her to post on the 'getting to know you' board on Redd's advice, but still nothing.
I dont know if someone is messing with me or what, but a few people here have gotten PMs.
Teric, if you are reading this, please post. There is a lot of help here, you just have to introduce yourself.
