isnt that kinda like russian roulette?
im scared to even smel the stuff.
if it wasnt for CH i would still be drunk every day like i was for the last 14 years unless i couldnt drink because of the pain.
i finaly gave up the long hard fight when it became debilitating to take a drink.
is it a test?
no offense, just curious and concerned !

Sounds like you're passing the beer test.
Hope you're in for a long, PF remission, Dave.
Best,

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.

Schaan, for those of us who believe a fine micro beer is truly the nectar of the Gods...(such as myself!!!).......downing a beer and not getting hit is the final proof positive the cycle is over. I wait till I've been off meds about a week, and then down a couple...with 02 and trex at the ready!!!!! If that don't wake the beast up, I know he's in hard hibernation and I'm free for a while! It;s just one more way we tell the beast "up yours!"

thanks for the clarification, makes sense to me now.
i LOVE beer and it was the only form of alcohol i could almost not abuse (almost) i drank vodka and alot of it, and i can honestly say that the pain of my attacks finaly outweighed the need to be drunk to the point that i have been able to quit.
interestingly enough my first attack was 1/11/2000 i quit drinking 1/11/2005.

I am as well on my second beer and no headache though i had one 2 nights ago, hinting that a cycle is on the start. I try not to let them control my life, as hard as that is 
I do end up not drinking by the middle of the cycle. So ummm 3 days of dinking then none for a awhile. Enjoy your beer and I hope you have a good headache free night.

I found it easier to just stop. the thought of the pain that comes with beer makes me quiver. the fact that beer was a trigger was one of the hardest things for me to accept. I just simply did not want to think that something I love so much was actually causing my pain. In the end I realized I was an addict and was basically forced to give it all up anyway, or continue to spend a lot of time in jails and institutions. 
I guess on some distorted level I just envy those able to enjoy a few beers, a go on about their lives the next day. I believe along with the ch's, I was also created without a "quitter" so to speak.
