Title: New to the board, not the beast
Post by phrodus on May 9^th, 2003, 4:35pm

In august it would have been 3 years.... I forgot what it was like and I honestly thought it was gone for good. My condolences to those who are chronic :'(

Last night's headache lasted for about 6 hours and an immitrex nose spray gave me complete cesation.... for about 20 minutes, then it all came back.

This morning the beast carefully woke me up for another 5 hour dance and I ended up mixing my cafergot with my immitrex, it made me sick in another way :-X but eventually the beast went away.

I suppose I'm still lucky, because I have gone so long being PF, but still it'd be such a better world if this was a headache I could actually do somehting about ;) Well, bring on the horror stories... I'd like to hear stoies from others on this board.

Welcome to the board! Sorry that the beast is blastin' his way slowly through your cranium leavin' a charred, bloody hole half way through. Welcome to the family! Good luck!

Glad you found us, sorry you needed to. Stick around. You will hear plenty of stories. Some funny, most not. But along with that you will pick up new ideas of ways to cope and new remedies to try.

Hope your cycle is the shortest you ever had.

um, me being the queen of Attention Defecit Disorder I just now noticed the word chronic in relation to ch's.

Does this mean that there are those of us who have ch's like ,what, all of the time?
My God! My heart breaks to think of such a hell on earth! How often does a chronic person get them? POOR THING!!!
