Title: Life is so "fun" ?
Post by Svenn on Sep 23^rd, 2004, 9:23am

1
You have clusterheadache"diagnosed cronic"

2

you have had a heartatack

3 You have angina and need nitroglyzerine for the pain

4

We all know that Nitro is a major trigger for cluster and that is used to provoce cluster under diagnosing ch

Life is so "fun"

yet another reason why it should be allowed for the docs to do with us that the vets do to our pets when all hopes are out

Svenn, I'm so sorry.... :'( Hang in there, my friend. Is there any chance you could use aspirin instead of nitro? At any rate, I hope you remain as pain-free as possible. [smiley=hug.gif]

Sven, hang tough, it's not over...may seem like it but there is still plenty to live for. I've been down and out because of these damn things, too. Actually had the .45 pointed at my head and going to end it myself, twice. It's not worth it. Take a moment to chill and look at this from a new perspective. There are treatments out there and new ones coming down the pipe. WE WILL KICK THE BEASTS ASS IN OUR LIFETIME! I'm sure of it! Keep in the fight, don't let the Beast win!

Hopin for a few PFDAN for Svenn!!!

Svenn,

In Nashville I believe it was Cluster Chuck who tried to convince you to talk to your Cardiologist about prescribing a new version of Nitro (Can't remember what it was called) That would NOT induce a CH,

Chuck is chronic and also has heart problems you know and this works for him...Sorry I can't remember what the name of the medication is called. I think it was a spray of some kind.

Have you checked into that???? Linda

It was the other way around Linda.was trying to get him to try the nitrolingualspray 0,4mg/DOS in stead of the damn pill.the spray is just as effective if not better.
Spray leave the body within 15-20 min but the pill takes 2-3 hours

Svenn

thnx for the post though

Since when is life fun?

Scrunched and shoved out of a nice warm pool of womb,

Poked, prodded and washed and tagged,

swabbed into scratchy terrycloth blankets,

Forced to adapt to harsh enviroments,
strange schedules,
where you can only eat when mommy says so,
where you have to sit in cold nappies until mommy desides to check on ya...
where you have to sleep beccause it's dark and the big people are tired... even though you wish you could race and climb and do all that "daytime stuff" because the cat nap in the car was al the rest you needed for another 5 hours....wink....

and

set in a learn or die atmosphere
(think of it. young babies are born and if they
cannot learn, they fail to thrive....)
Peopel joke about learning to swin by being thrown into deep water....but we learn how to live....by being tossed onto this planet.....

where we have to learn how to control our limbs, our mouths, our parents and our friends to get our needs met....

Where you jsut get comfortable jeans, and then you out grow them

Where you just get a comfortable bed, and you out grow it...

where you jsut get a comfortable friendship working, and then you gotta move, or they gotta move or
God takes them back to the nether world....

Where you just finish eating a great meal, but then
have to deal with gas, or acid or worse....

Since when is life "Fun"

It's hard work to survive one day here on this planet

Better brain pain and heart pain than a life long
subscription to a wheel chair....

or epillepsy

or cerebral palsy....

Chin up!

Fight the good fight.

Reach for the brass ring

and for heaven's sake,

stop trying to make the world a happy place.

Afterall, isn't that what PARADISE is for?

This place is just our brief tour of hell,
so we can be grateful for being rescued

lol

Good luck and hang Tough!

Have at it, Svenn. I'm pulling for you.
