Title: CH Pain Free going on 2 weeks
Post by athos on Sep 10^th, 2004, 9:29am

Being Cautious Here

PF for 2 weeks.

This is a first for about 5 years. I am chronic, have been for 5 years. I have not had a Pain Free week for a very long time. I usually get hit 2-3 days out of the week. 4to7 cycles on those days. Once in a great while I get a slight rest. Sunday is coming, that is my hell day, not sure why So we will then. My wife thinks that I just want to get out of Church. I would take church 7 days a week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Still have a pain in the neck, but that should go away now with a little streching and exercise...
3 more weeks in the collar that I have come to call the stiffy.... Jonny shut up!!!! I get to wear a soft collar around the house. It is nice to be able to move now, and be able to not have to turn my whole body just to look at something.

Athos,

I have been wondering how things have been for you since the operation. Seems better, as was hoped it would be. The PF time is a real kick too. Wow, things seem to be getting better since that last operation and I hope they keep doing so for you Athos. I am so glad for you, that operation has been good for you from the start, of course I understand the discomfort, but you sound good! Alright! A cluster break.

i would go through surgery again for a CH break....

In the recovery room the nurse asked me on a scale of 1-10 how was the pain was... i asked her on a normal scale or does that include CH... she said the worst pain I have ever felt... I lied and told her a 9. The CH scale has to be seperate from normal pain.

Athos,

This is great! Please keep me posted on your ch status. I still maintain my herniated discs in my neck affect my clusters.

I am SO happy to hear you are getting a break and I hope it becomes a PERMANENT break from the beast.

Still prayin' for ya and am SO glad things are going better,
Renee

Glad to hear the beast is leaving you alone. Damnit, you deserve a break with all of the shit you've been through recently. Take care, and I hope next week is p/f as well.

Peace,
