Title: CH's Starting Again??
Post by Marcos618 on Oct 3^rd, 2003, 12:41pm

I think the CH's are going to be starting again. Everyday for the past few days I have had what I call "zig-zags" where my vision is like someone just flashed a bright light in my eyes and the center of vision is white and I have blurred flashing zig zag lines all around the edges of vision. These last 10 to 20 minutes.

I also have had like tension type headaches almost all day for the last three days, this often happens just before the CH's kick in. Not sure if I should start taking the CH drugs now or wait.

What drugs? Did your doc give you preventatives? Maybe you should call him/her and ask.

I always keep lots of Prednazone (sp) on hand incase the CH's come back. That seems to work the best. If they do hit it holds them down until I can get to the Doc, but he basically tells me to check the internet for what is new in treatment and we go by what I often find here on this board.
