Title: thought it was over
Post by maffumatt on May 10^th, 2005, 6:54am

I have been PF for over three weeks except for a few light shadows. Early this morning I got hit Hard. I thought I was done until this fall. I don't understand why it came back like this. Could it be a last kick in the head or something a little more sinister? This last week has been a little stressful and i have been working with alot of chemicals. Could the stress or the chemicals bring a person back into cycle?

I have been cycle free for four years but still get an occassional attack.

With you still having shadows I would say your still in cycle. My cycles seem to ramp up and ramp down with number and intensity. Ive went weeks after a cycle without having one and then get one out of no where. I account it to me still being in cycle.

Stress is a trigger and so is some smells. People have been known to get hit after smelling something like cigarettes. The chemicals could trigger it.

I wouldnt worry about going back into a cycle because it sounds like you never got out of it. Don't worry, though, from what you have said it sounds like they will be ending soon. PF wishes coming to ya.

Best wishes,
Allen

I guess i am still in cycle, its been a bad two days. I get so tired of this shit. I know everyone here is tired of it too. It seems like I cant ever get away from this crap. I didn't know that my HAs were clusters until this cycle so I never paid attention to how long they were. My best guess was by going over my old Ins. papers. My (sinus infections) always seemed to be antibiotic resistant so I always had to go through two rounds of them. 2 months. This cycle started on Feb. 17 and I guess it hasn't ended. I have already turned my bottles into Lincare and I am off all my meds. I am wondering if they were working, and thats why I am haveing them now?
