Welcome to the board! My name is Guiseppi....and I'm also a CH'er! 
When you're comfortable, let us know what you're using, what's worked and hasn't worked etc. You might show us something, we might show you something. It's what makes the board work. Hope you're catching some pain free time!

Hi Becky, nice to meet you 
Even though CH sucks, its always good to know that there are others who DO understand. Glad you're here and keep us posted on how you're doing.
Welcome!

Hi Becky and Welcome to Clusterville
And yes . . . we DO understand what you're going through.
You've just stepped into a family of folks with more info/caring/sharing than you'll find anywhere.
Hope whatever meds (abortive & preventive) you're on are keeping you PF.
Drop by often and ask any questions you might have . . . the light's always on.
Be Safe, PFDANs
Richard

Hi Becky and welcome!!!
The guys on here are awesome and will help you with information and knowledge they have built up over the years from themselves and sufferers just like yourself!
Ive only recently started oxygen (last week) and was also perscribed imigran injectors to help deal with the pain as previously i was on ibuprofen paracetamol and maxalt which did nothing, but as soon as i started Oxygen i couldnt beleive i could abort them by just supping in the oxygen for 15-20mins (not used 1 injector)!!!
Without the information provided on here and OUCH i would never of known about Oxygen or Imigran injector, i would of had to go through a long list of useless meds alot of people go through before they find there silver bullet or the info provided!!
Good look and PFD to all!!

Hi thought I would give you a bit more info as I wasnt very well when I posted first message. I wasnt havin a cycle I had a stinkin cold  . My CH started about 5 years ago I must be lucky cuz my Dr diagnosed straight away and started me on Sanimigran(Pizotifen) 4.5 mg daily and Imigran (Imitrex) tabs. When i moved my new Dr kept me on same meds. Last battle I had (June 2007) lasted for 6 weeks, day and night so my meds were changed. I now take Epilim (Sodium Valporate) 600mg daily and Imigran. My headaches last for 40 mins and then stop then I will have another one 1hr 30mins later this will keep on all day and all bloody nite so by the time the cycle ends I am emotionly and physically drained. Thanks for being here and listening I dont know wether to say Im glad your here for me cuz that means you are suffering like I am, but I am. PFDAN to you all love Becky
