Started "shadow?" feeling 6 days ago,waking up remembering how bad it was scared. Had 4am attack full on then 7am another. Oh it's Uk time now 330pm eye and nose not good. Can't decide wether to go to doctors? More drugs again. Hoping it'll go away again? Am I stupid? Anyway Hello from new boy in denial

That we can't tell you! Hoping it will go away does not make you stupid, it just shows, like you said, that you're in denial!

If you do go to teh doctor, read up on this document as it has very good info on meds:

Hello Sax,
Welcome to the internet and CH.com.. rest assured the links to your bank account are relatively modest compared to other websites and you should only have to sell your firstborn child to continue posting here once in a while.. JOKE! Sorry.. couldn't resist it! ;;D
Get your arse to the doctors first thing tomorrow and stop messing about. Why suffer a minute longer than you have to?
Tell us a bit more about what you have tried already meds wise and lets see if we can help you at all. Have you ever tried Oxygen? I swear by it, its simply the bestest stuff ever in the history of the world for clusters (not that I'm exaggerating y'know)
Have a look at the OUCH UK website, it has loads of info there on meds and prescription names etc which you'll need for seeing UK doc's. There is a support board where you can post and a helpline which is manned by volunteer sufferers.. I don't know if you have ever spoken to another sufferer but its amazing. No one will ever understand like we do!
The OUCH UK website is here..

Looking forward to hearing more from you, ask all you want, we're here to help okay?
Take care
