dang...read this after I posted in E's thread. I'll answer the questions, then I'll paste what I posted in Elaine's thread. ********************** What I want to know is where were you before you found CH.COM, by this I mean: Were you diagnosed? yes Did you have a Neuro? no Did you have meds? yes, fiorecet (good for puking and sleeping afterwords Did you think you were alone in this pain? yes You get where im going with this.................................................................... .. Part two: How has CH.COM helped you, by this I mean: Got meds? yes, ones that work Got a Doc? yes Again, you know where im going with this.................................................................... . Part three: (Easy) How did you find CH.COM? bought a computer, searched for clusterheadaches And now here's how I REALLY feel Pasted: Someone asked a while ago...where would we be without this board? Is the reason I have clusterheadaches was to MEET all of you great people?? I ponder that... I'm not a social person, in person. I really don't have any best friends. I don't go do anything with anyone on the weekends...except for Kaleb, and he's turning into a teenager and he's a totally different person now. You guys ARE my best friends. You guys are the people I spend my time with. I consider this as much "quality time" as I do in physical form. I feel I know the inside and outside of a lot of you...and I'm not sure I could feel that if I just knew you in person...and not online. Just some random thoughts, damn I do love this family!!!! Mast

I started this ride around age 10 or 11 which would have been '71 or '72. Was not diagnosed until around '87 or '88 (never kept notes) Once diagnosed, and once I had internet, I did a search with the old search engine that started with an "I" (infosomething?? It was the best until Google) and found this place, I think in '98 or '99. I have never had a neuro. I was put on a lot of the old migraine meds without ever being diagnosed as migraine. (They could tell it wasn't migraine, but didn't know what it was. But since it was "kind of" like migraine, I was put on Elavil, Inderal, Ergostat, etc) Once I found this place, I found out about Imitrex (tried, didn't work) Verapamil, Prednisone (tried worked while using only) and O2 (going to try). But the most amazing thing I found here was other people who shared this very rare (my doctor's words) disease. I thought since I was in the "rare" category and then because I was a woman, the "extremely rare" category, that I would never know anyone else with this. Interestingly enough, one of the first people I met was Elaine. A woman with CH. Not only did she have CH, she was Chronic!! I didn't even know at that time that there were people who were chronic. This woman suffered from this horrible pain.... ALL THE TIME!!! Right then and there, without even knowing it, I became attached to CH.com and the people who populated it. I may never get a neuro. I may never do the meds (until they find some without horrible side effects) But, I will never feel as isolated and as alone as I felt before I found this site. Even though I might not come here every day... I still know that, here, on this site, I can alway find people who truly KNOW what the doctors say is the worst pain ever endured by man. Love you guys! Thanks Jonny.

Here we go: Part 1. Diagnosed: Yes by an er doc no less. This is my first cycle and I only went 1 Week without a diagnoses. Had to wait another week without any preventive meds in order to find a gp. Neuro: No , My gp doesn't think it would do any good. ( can't seem to find one to see me without a referall and I have no insurance) Med's : Found ch .com before going to my first appointment with the gp. I pretty much knew what should be tried and what wouldn't work. I got verampamil and indo. She wouldn't give me o2. Alone?: The first week before going to the er I was sure I was dying. A person couldn't possably have this much pain and still be healthy. I already knew that narcs wouldn't work because I had some off my worst attach taking vicaden for a tooth that had to be extracted. I was sure that I would go to sleepone night and my brain or eye would explode instead of me waking up in the worst pain I have ever felt. I felt guilty for putting the people close to me through the pain I was feeling it hurt to just look at the hopelessness on the faces of people who love and care about you and to think that that look is there because of you. Alone and scared doesn't come close to explaining that feeling of total isolation. part 3 : How ch.com has helped me : After the trip to the er I spent a lot of time reading about ch. I knew than that there was meds that could help and that there is many people who has suffered this for many many years. I read in disbelieve of people who have suffered this pain for 20-30 years took courage in the fact that life could be good again and though the medical world isn't a lot of help they do try . I think most medical people just can't grasp the amout of pain we endure. Got med : I knew for reading on ch.com the meds I was willing to try I learn of lots of things to help make it more bareable. And alternative treatments to try. Ch.com has been a valueable source for all this imformation. got doc: Found one. Part 3 : How I found ch.com : After my er visit I told my best friend that I had clusters and the next morning I had this site the O.U.C.H site and a lot of other imformation in my e-mail. She had stayed up half the night doing all this research for me so I could start learning right away. She has been one of my biggest supporter's and without her I would still not have any o2. I hope this is what you were looking for Johnny It;s the I can do with a ha.

Ask and ye shall receive: Were you diagnosed? Yes John was Did you have a Neuro? Yes Did you have meds? Yes Did you think you were alone in this pain? For sure How has CH.COM helped you, by this I mean: Got meds? Luckily we had them Got a Doc? Had one already How did you find CH.COM? Surfin the net when John was having a really bad episode. CH.COM has helped us with simply knowing that we are not alone in the pain. There are actually other who suffer like John does and also support like I do. It still amazes me every time I read the posts that there are so many people out there like us. Thanks to all who are here. D

Were you diagnosed? yes (a few times, with a few things, before they got it right) Did you have a Neuro? yes Did you have meds? yes Did you think you were alone in this pain? yes Part two: How has CH.COM helped you, by this I mean: This site, all of the information here, all of the support that can be found here is so wonderful. I AM NOT ALONE! I want to thank each and every one of you for being here because it has meant the world to me. It has lifted me at my lowest moments just to be able to visit here and know that there are people here who truly understand where I am coming from. All of the advice about treatments is invaluable to those of us who are still learning about what it is that we are dealing with. Some of you "old timers" simply have no idea how much it means to us to be able to turn to you for advice. Thank you for being here. Got meds? yes, have O2 now Got a Doc? a smarter one Part three: (Easy) How did you find CH.COM? cruisin' the net (most likely surfing Yahoo!)

Were you diagnosed? I was diagnosed with many different things until I finally found this place, learned what I was out there, and armed with the info worked with the doctors on what was happening.. Then I met the folks at Mayo and the keyed right in. Did you have a Neuro? Yes Did you have meds? Yes Did you think you were alone in this pain? I knew there were others, others in my extended family have have migraines etc, but early on I did not think that anyone could understand what was happening... It was not until I found CH.com that I felt that there were others that know what the hell is going on. You get where im going with this.................................................................... .. Part two: How has CH.COM helped you, by this I mean: Got meds? It has helped to find other resources Got a Doc? no Again, you know where im going with this.................................................................... . Part three: (Easy) How did you find CH.COM? Researching headache symptoms on google, and then presto... then I was here, the guy that does not like to do dishes.. Athos

Ok,....Enough of the fun stuff....sex, war, religion Come on jonny....please....let me talk about sex What I want to know is where were you before you found CH.COM, by this I mean: Were you diagnosed? Not for a year or so Did you have a Neuro? Went through some real dumbass's Did you have meds? Nope Did you think you were alone in this pain? Yep, thought that there was really something weird going on with me (ok....weirder than normal) You get where im going with this.................................................................... .. Part two: How has CH.COM helped you, by this I mean: Got meds? Being chronic, I can literally say ch saved my skin. Got a Doc? Yep Again, you know where im going with this.................................................................... . Part three: (Easy) How did you find CH.COM? Got the diagnosis, sat down and typed in clusterheadaches. Then the most wonderful thing happened......I started meeting people, who in the last year, have literally changed, enriched and fulfilled my life in ways I can't begin to describe. I always had a pretty busy and full life before ch, but the friends I have made here, I can't imagine not having met them or not having them in my life from now on. CH.com is now part of my life, a damn good part, and it always will be. I just love you guys too much.

Were you diagnosed? NO Did you have a Neuro? Yes,but for migraines not CH.I didn't know what they were or that they'd be back Did you have meds? none for CH Did you think you were alone in this pain?Yes. it's nice to know that I'm not alone,but it is sad that there are so many others in this CH hell. You get where im going with this.................................................................... .. Part two: How has CH.COM helped you, by this I mean:Saved my life and whats left of my sanity.I'll never be able to express my grattitude to DJ for starting this site,and to all of you for being here Got meds? YES Got a Doc? yes Add inGot friends who understand the beast?Got support? More than I ever could have hoped for! Again, you know where im going with this.................................................................... . Part three: (Easy) How did you find CH.COM? I typed "Suicide+headache" in the search bar.(at that time I had a loaded 44 setting on top of my monitor just waiting for the next hit) The 1st posts I read said"suicide doesn't stop the beast it just keeps us from dancin" that made me think again. The 2nd post was about O2!!!! O2 is the'silver bullet' for my beast.I had been seeing my neuro for about a year for migraines when that cycle started,the day after finding this site I walked into her office while geetind hit and managed two words (Oxygen,clusters!)She hooked me up on the spot.After the hit she asked me why I never told her I had CH,I said until last night I didn't know that they had a name or that they would keep coming back! Enough rambling from me. Pain Free Wishes To ALL, Billy

Were you diagnosed? 1985/86 Did you have a Neuro? Three over the years. The one I have now actually knows what he's doing. Did you have meds? I've run the gammet. Dosage alterations, combo platters, but presently using none. Everything and combination of were not doing the trick any more. The side effects were killing me and my marriage. Did you think you were alone in this pain? Yes - years ago -- no one could relate to what I was dealing with. Part two: How has CH.COM helped you, by this I mean: Friendships, phone calls. Knowing I'm not playing this game alone Got meds? abortives only Got a Doc? Yes. GP and Neuro are great. Part three: (Easy) How did you find CH.COM? Some search engine before the site changed.

Were you diagnosed? Yes, at age 17 by my GP. He told me I had 'classic clusters' and that they could be a bear to treat. Did you have a Neuro? I couldn't afford to go to a neuro. Did you have meds? Tried various meds with some success until I became chronic in '98 - then I seemed to be unresponsive to most meds. Did you think you were alone in this pain? Completely! Nobody understood what I was going through. I felt lost. You get where im going with this.................................................................... .. Part two: How has CH.COM helped you, by this I mean: Got meds? I learned alot about meds and alternative treatments. Got a Doc? Still trying to find a good neuro. It is almost like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Again, you know where im going with this.................................................................... . Part three: (Easy) How did you find CH.COM? A friend of mine did a search one day and found this site. He turned me on to it - and it blew my mind when I read some of the posts. Yes, other people DO have this. My sis in law read some posts and said "If I didn't know any better, I would swear you wrote these." as the posts echo'd what I had been trying to tell people all along. I found that not only am I not alone, but also am not the only one whose life has been devastated and thrown off-course due to CH. Before finding this site, I had lost everything, including the will to live. This site gave me something back that, without it - I would be dead by now. It gave me hope. It still gives me hope. It proves to me that something good can come out of something this horrible. Peace, Carl D
