Hi, Everyone I just wanted to share with you that I had a fantastic weekend....I feel that I shared the bad now I wanted to share the good....I went to the shore on Sat Morning.  I really thing the DHE45 nose spray at least for me is so much better then the imitrex...It killed the beast in about 5-10 minutes and I had about a 2 on the kip.(did the meds fast) that said I was off and running Hubby packed the car got the kids up and we were off to Cape May.....I sat on the beach played in the ocean with the family and had a great time.....came home(we have a house there) got showered and out to dinner.....at night I took the 2 Klonopin .5mg and went to sleep.  Sunday morning I woke up with a minor one took the DHE and applied the ice and in 5 minutes it was gone and has not returned.  So you guessed it headed to get a very large cup of coffee and headed once again to the beach.....I loved this weekend and wanted to share the good with the bad so for all of you that are still at the bad....hold on it's going to get better.....I'm in my 5th week so I think I have about 2 to go.....but I'm going to beat it if not forever at least this time.....Luv Sami

 They'd have to catch me first - I'll sneak in under the cover of darkness as my CH's always seem to come in the middle of the night!
 
 Interestingly last night I was having one and I got up and made myself a big bowl of ice cream. I swear the headache eased off for about 1/2 hr but then came back. Lets submit that to the insurance company and see what they say.
 
 Maybe we can get Ben and Jerry's to sponsor OUCH!!!

 I read your post on the general messages about your being on the front lawn..........it's not funny but I had to laugh at the image and having been in that state myself on a few occassions.
 
 I was called to a meeting Wednesday and had to give a report. I had just taken some meds and I was pretty zoned out - I have no idea what I said but I still have a job so I guess it wasn't that stupid!  
 
 This morning I woke up with a nasty CH and jumped in the cold shower. For some reason I started having a sneezing fit - OMG - I thought my head was going to fly off! Talk about adding insult to injury.  
 
 Hope you are feeling better. The hot and humid weather is due back this weekend which always makes my CH's worse so I am not looking forward to that. Time to stock up on more ice cream. If things get really bad I'll just go lie in the kiddie pool I have in the backyard for the dogs.  Wonder if I can get my Dr. to write a script for a pool and for Ben and Jerry's. At least we would get something for all this pain.

Great news Sam.  Pool hoppin.  So funny.  We have a big camp near my house that has about 6 built in pools (trampolines too! Cheesy)  I guess you know after dark we snuck in and bounced on the trampolines and jumped in the pool(s)!
 
Jumping in a cold pool DOES seem to work.  For me body craves extreme temperatures at different levels of the attack.   I guess it's really the live action dance we do to cope.  
 
I can remember jumping in the COLD water and it felt good.  But later, I needed that blanket to be warm and unwind...  
 
Hope things keep improving.  Kim
