I had a GON on wednesday and pain free 96hours now !
And getting 8hours sleep a night again !
Thats the longest pain free time ive had in so long CHUFFED
Have many of you had it done ? how long were you pain free? The noise of it was very weird kinda a snapping and popping sound, well worth it though !
Pf wishes Ike

Well, there you go, Ike. Another prayer answered.
Never had it done, but I would if I needed it. I'm stoked for you.

That's sweet!
I had a double 2 weeks prior to going into the hospital last year.
It didn't do a thing but leave me numb and I truly believe it triggered an attack in the office.
It was done by Dr. Tepper so I know it was done right.
Happy to hear you have found a break hopefully it keeps going

Hello Ike:
I'm chuffed for you too! You need a break. I've done nearly everything for these headaches but the blockaids, surgery, and botox, so I can't really comment, but LONG MAY IT LAST!
Wishing you and Tam, Louisha, and Rieley the very best,
Ray

Congrats!!
When they first did an ONB on my husband, the doctor said it breaks the cycle in 60%...sounds like that might be you!!
When my husband got them they decreased the intensity of the attacks for about 6 days. But he definitely thought they were worth it once a week!!
Good luck

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.
