Title: Just got hit...
Post by sandie99 on Aug 2nd, 2006, 8:54am
The beast is full of surprises... :(

Here I was, happily doing my chores, when I got hit.

Now, usually I would run to my fridge and get a Red Bull asap, but I was outside, taking the trash out and on my way to the library.

But, luckily for me, I had my handbag - and few caffeine tablets and some water (I carry little thermos with me sometimes) - with me. So, I had 2 100mg tablets asap and, thank goodness, the beast left. 5 mins and I was PF! :)

This was a classic visit from the devil: from happy, relaxed PF into in total kip 7 agony in seconds. I hope that it's just the heat... I kinda like being episodic.

Best wishes & PF days to all,
Sanna

Sounds like you got right on it and took care of him, Sanna.  It's upsetting to hear that you got a visit from the beast, though.

I HATE this devil--and I HATE what it does to wonderful people.

Best wishes,

George

Nice defensive move Sanna. I agree that it's probably the heat, I have never gotten any hit out of cycle and I have been heavily shadowing the past two weeks.
Fingers crossed that when the heat wave breaks, the beast will go back in his hole at least until he's due in fall of '07.

Actually this is not classic for CH.  CH attacks usually take a few minutes from the first "feeling" that one is comming until the pain actually sets in and starts to ramp up.  If you are going from PF to Kip7 in seconds, I'd be researching other types of headaches.

Sandie I've heard of others here going from 0-60 in Oh My God. It can happen, it doesn't always happen that we all get a warning.
I'm sorry you got hit hon, I hope it was just a flash in the pan
lots of love

Sorry you got whacked...
Big hugs and vibes going out to you. The heat has been miserable here too, and I think that and all of the high pressure is what threw me back into cycle.
I know you have caffeine tabs, but have you ever taken Taurine tabs? I was reading on the meds board about the taurine and am gonna try and get some this weekend. It may be worth it to check out since Red Bull can get to be alot of $$$.

Much more a symptom of TN or CPH than it is CH.

I think we do a disservice by being too quick to slobber and google all over people here than give them correct information.

I have gone from 0-60 many times before with CH Bob. However if this is something new for her she should check it out with the neuro or if this starts to occur more freuqently.
