Title: a living hell
Post by mrataxic on May 4^th, 2004, 2:29pm

Hello to all,,,,,,,,

I am just now slowly getting over about a 4 week bout with clusters. I was hospitalized 4 about a week..... While in the hospital I had VERY hard core drugs adminastered, I was in so much pain I did not kno what to do, and boy was I hallucinating.... I am so glad that I am feeling better,,,,,,,,,,,for now at least. People who experience clusters ARE in my opinion VERY courageous people to endure such a pain........It just sux we have to.......I have a question...... I also have Ataxia, with is a neuro problem that is degenerative an mainly effects the motor skills......... A while back ago (i forget where) i read something about people with Ataxi rarely sometimes get clusters...........Anyone kno anything about a connection between the two or kno where I can find out? THANX and take care my Clusster friends................

Mike

Hay Suess Mike--

you've got it rough fella. A four week bout would indicate to me that you're episodic?
I'm in full agreement about the tenacity and grit of our fellow sufferers. Hope you do progressively better and thx for checking in.

Can't help with Ataxia connection but likely Floridian will chime in with a medialese incoherent treatise and then a good translation.

Not saying it isn't true, but I have never heard of such a connection.
