Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by Hooter on Jul 21st, 2003, 4:18pm yes, hopefull. You missed Cathy's point that you need to ask the questions on one thread. If you keep starting new ones you will not allow anyone else's messages to be seen Hooter |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by Hooter on Jul 21st, 2003, 4:19pm And if you start another thread people will assume you are winding up deliberately, and then they may not be as welcoming |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by Kirk on Jul 21st, 2003, 4:19pm Without Imitrex and/or O2 mine last 45 - 90 minutes. With Imitrex and O2 5 - 10 minutes. So you might be missing Imitrex and O2. Just a guess mind you ;D TTFN Kirk |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by Hooter on Jul 21st, 2003, 4:22pm S'Ok, don't mean to upset you, it's just that if you stick to one thread, you can ask any number of different questions without filling the screen up |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by hopefull on Jul 21st, 2003, 4:23pm I wasn't shouting my caps were left one...this is to much of a headache |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by cathy on Jul 21st, 2003, 4:25pm Look if your Neuro has misdiagnosed you then your not going to get the right meds or the right help, all I was saying was that clusterheadaches don't normally last longer than 4 hours max...usually about 45 minutes...maybe you should seek a second opinion... |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by Ted on Jul 21st, 2003, 4:28pm Cathy's right. CHs don't last 20 hours. And she's right in why she's telling it to you too, so try not to see it as being mean. |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by Ted on Jul 21st, 2003, 4:37pm That's two "I'm leaving this place"'s in one day. See you in about 1/2 hour. Use that time to let it sink in what's trying to be taught to you today so you can find out what type of HAs you have and find appropriate treatment. |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by Charlie on Jul 21st, 2003, 6:35pm How about a list of symptoms or questions? That would help. We have thicker skins. You're not gonna get sensitivity editing here. We're so fuckin' nice, we may ourselves sick. Charlie |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by FrankF on Jul 21st, 2003, 8:29pm Pssst.... "hopefull" isn't here anymore, so no use replying to her posts. See the username in black (not green)... and below her name it says "Guest"? That means the CH Supporters here earlier today helped her leave the board. :'( |
||

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by homealone on Jul 21st, 2003, 8:45pm that's to bad...i guess some don't care what they say to hurt others...instead of helping them... |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by Ted on Jul 21st, 2003, 9:47pm Hey Homealone. With your judgemental characteristics I'm not surprised you have that name. I'm sorry if you'd like everyone to sit back and say "everyone who comes here is a clusterhead, even if you have 20 hour headaches. And everything you read here is a real cure, so question nothing!" Hey Frank. I stuck up for you earlier yesterday. That doesn't mean I'm owed anything. It means I have the right to tell you you're a dick if you want to recruit everyone here with any pain here. She wasn't chased away. She was given information and couldn't hack it. I'll tell you what. You go to a board about people with extreme gaseous conditions, bring up your or your wife's condition and see if they tell you it's more than gas and you should seek help from people more familiar with those conditions. Chased her off? Get real! |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by homealone on Jul 21st, 2003, 9:53pm so your the only one with REAL pain and know what is wrong with others just from a few post...where did you get your degree....yeah we all have them ...well most of us but whos being judgemental....sounds like you! |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by homealone on Jul 21st, 2003, 9:56pm you know what Ted you sound like you own the corner market on CH be glad to give you mine for a while would love to be PF for a while |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by Ted on Jul 21st, 2003, 10:16pm Guess what you little piece of shit. I BOTHERED to study the condition we have. Not something our neuros do. You, on the other hand, feel like it should be something just accepted and whatever someone tells you is OK. Want to know something? There's a site, www.clusterheadaches.org, that will give you information on clusters. I use it. Do you? Do you have the ability to question me on this? To do anything here but look for hugs and a loving finger up your ass? I don't corner the market on CH. But I sure as fuck will not let some little no-nothing like you come here and take up space and change your name from Hopeless to Home alone without calling you on it. Welcome back. I think that 1/2 hour guess to see you here was pretty accurate to? |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by homealone on Jul 21st, 2003, 10:19pm I'm her father but what does that matter...we don't need your bullshit either and i'll take a Dr. over you any day son...some people have just enough imfo to be dangerous to others...you sound like one of those people |
||

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by Ted on Jul 21st, 2003, 10:25pm Well som, I mean son????? I think you're full of shit. What did she do? Say "Hey daddy! Let me get off your lap for a second to tell you about this website that called me on my shit! And, being a great father that you are you decided to come here to JUST convince us your daughter has 20 hour clusters? Sounds like a load of BS to me. |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by homealone on Jul 21st, 2003, 10:27pm you sound like someone who loves bullshit... |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by Ree on Jul 21st, 2003, 10:27pm Imposters and Guests dont deserve return posts when they are ushered out properly... it would be more accurate to say that you have MIGRAINE home alone's daughter, friend or ???????? and there are plenty of places/message boards etc... for Migraine sufferers.............>>>Cluster Headache doesnt last 20 ish hours but Migraines do... Good Luck... how'd I do??? ( a very tired from the weekend Ree) |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by homealone on Jul 21st, 2003, 10:41pm I guess if she had read about the way to intor yourself to feeding sharks she wouldn't have trusted anyone... and been better off...some of you are so self obsorbed that you can't even see someone else is suffering the same way you are |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by Ted on Jul 22nd, 2003, 1:03am You did great Ree. I never would have expected you were tired. But then again I never would have expected... Ooops, I forgot. No politics. |

Hopefull/homealone: I read this as a typo. I get clusters, migraines, and a lovely little combo of the two - the migraines and the combos last for hours on end, the clusters, at their worst, have lasted up to four hours for me. I know you are on the defensive right now, and I do not want to add any fuel to this debate - I am just curious, did you mean that your ha last for 4 hours or for 20 hours? Am I reading this whole thing wrong? Can I just ask you some simple questions in order to best help you? 1) How long do they last? 2) You may have said this somewhere else, but what meds did the neuro give you? Have any of them been succesful for you thus far? 3) When you were diagnosed with migraines, did they ever give you Imitrex? Did it work? It may be something to look into. It works very well for both types of headaches. I hope you keep reading, check out all the buttons on the left, and are able to find something that will work for you. Peace and love, Georgia |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by hopefull on Jul 22nd, 2003, 11:23am I understand everyone is freaking ove the 20 hour thing ...it's not one long peak it's up and down but i do hurt the whole time Dr. mentioned rebound headaches i peak about7-10 times on really bad days 3-6 on others but it still hurts in my head all day aches and aches but not constact peaks |

Title: Re: LENGTH OF HEADACHES Post by taraann on Jul 22nd, 2003, 3:35pm I recently got a CH/migraine combo and ended up in the ER....I am just learning about the CH thing and my very first post a few ppl said it didn't sound like I had CH and i took athe ch quiz and it came out 50/50 I was diagnosed with ch during a foggy time in my life (LOLOL) so I dont' remember much about what the nuero said.... but during this last cycle I've learned alot more...SSo I've had headaches last alot longer than a normal CH BUT its not constant 10's or anything and I'm figuring out (between my own observations, my docs and ppl on this boards postings...) that I had a migraine riding inbetween and during the CH's.... Just wanted to put my 2 cents in. Tara Ann |
