Title: Newbie saying thank you
Post by Dave_Fustin on Feb 4^th, 2004, 1:53am

Hello to all,

I have suffered these headaches for many years. Not to the extent of my lastest bout with them, This episode has been going on since Aug 2003 and I am sure hoping I am due for my break. ATM I am getting 3 to 8 a day so I am not getting much of a break and you can only take so much Imetrex so I have to pick and choose what headache to use it on.

I have found all of you wonderful people here and it has most definatly saved my life. I was at the point of losing it because I had thought I was alone in this and I really honestly thought I was losing my mind and going crazy.

I now have a ton of great information to share with my NEW DRs.

I just want to say thank you to all of you for being here with such wonderful support and thanks for letting me know I am not alone.

Speak for yourself, I am completely sane and resent the implication to the contrary.

Welcome Dave.

It must be the Cluster Headaches that make us all so crazy. Not for sure, but it is pretty much a big coincidence though.

Hang in there. Hope you get relief soon and the info helps with the docs so you can get what you need.

Welcome Dave and among all brain-damaged twerps, you'll find lots of good ideas for dealing with this horror. ::)

Here is a link to a technique that worked for me:

This one is to help others understand that this has nothing to do with what is thought of as "headache:"

Good luck and let us know how you're doing.

Welcome Dave.

Check out the o2 link. It can help you extend the trex, and it has no bad side effects.

Glad you found us.

I disagree... :)

It's the lack of knowledge and understanding in the general public (and medical profession) that makes us crazy!

Welcome aboard, but like many I wish we didn;t have to. But since you suffer too, at least we can all help each other through this.

Good communications will lead to better science... :)
