pinky,
Welcome to ch.com. All I can suggest at this point is stick around and read, read, read. And then read some more. Ask questions, the only stupid ones are the ones unasked. Best to you.

Pinky,

Besides what bob said, I can only offer one thought. I am an Episodic CHer. Normally my cycle is mid-Oct thru late Dec. or early January...odd thing is, that when I first started having these horriffic "headaches" (and before I was diagnosed and knew what it was) I was also was getting them in spring around late Feb. or early-mid March. Ironically, I haven't had the spring cycle in the last two years, I've only had em in Fall. I really have no explanation as to why this is and that is part of what we are all about... trying to figure this kind of stuff out, but I can say that NOTHING is typical about CH (except that it hurts reallllllllly bad and it sucks), just when you think you have it all figured out it throws ya a wicked change-up.

Hope this helped a little,
Ramon
