Title: I'm Beginning to wonder...
Post by cerebus1968 on Nov 17^th, 2002, 11:21am

Hi all! how is everyone?

Hi Cat! glad your Ticker is ok and sorry your head isnt better. I'm beginning to wonder.....If I havent gone chronic this year. Normally, My cycle should have ended by now.
Been havin' steady Headaches every other day or so this time. The Ha's have started normally this year at the specified time but havent gone away as they have in the past.
They are really starting to grate on my nerves. Although i haven't been awoken from sleep as often I did this October and the intensity/ frequency has diminished a little, sometimes, I still get them but more around the time I'm supposed to be ,or "normally" getting up.
I have forgotten to take my verpamil and Indocin on a couple of occasions, but, only because It hasn'y become an automatic habit to me yet. And because they tear up my stomach very badly. My imitrex is helping as well as my oxygen. This past week I got a double prescription for imitrex (in pill and Injectible form). And I have a neurologist appointment on the 25th (my first).
Sorry to whine so much, but, today I just cant seem to get it together mentally, I'm scared and worried.
I really don't want to have to cart this O2 tank everwhere I go, and I already carry a generous supply of Imitrex as well as my Preventatives.
I'm really begining to feel like an invalid, I havent been fishing since June and I havent gotten yet to go Hunting, worse yet I cant even focus on my artwork and I have so many projects to do.
Once again......Sorry for being a whiner and Hats off to you who have been chronic for so many years and months now.
Hope you are all feeling decent today.
Much Gratitude,
Captain R.D. Brown U.S.S. Cerebus NCC-1968

Hang in there Capn.

That which dont kill us only make us stronger. I haven't baited a hook in 2 months either. There is a 50 lb striper (or a 110 lb stripper) with my name on it out there somewhere.

Hang in there R. D. Sorry to read you are going through a rough time. I hate the fact this beast can work so hard on trying to stop you from doing what you enjoy doing.

Don -- 50 lb anorexic striper -- Yuk! Now the 110er sounds viewable.

Here's hoping it's just a slight abberation to your normal cycle capn.

I know my worst fear is chronic....I don't know how the folks on here do it...they are all pretty special if you ask me.

Hope things improve for you soon.
