How about you start ONE thread and ask all your questions in that thread, instead of sucking up the bandwith you are not paying for?

Feel free to click on the paypal button on the bottom of the screen.

You'll be fine. Just keep your headache qustions here on this thread and you will be fine. Once your feeling better and just want to post BS, you can go to the General thread. You'll get used to it. ;;D

I am just feeling bad :( I am in the middle of the cycle of clusters I have no ins. and my husband asked his boss to help they say no! :( I have used my 2 shots of imitrex I am out and have no doctor ! no more money to buy it at 80.00 per shot and do not have a dr. right now!

Just upset and lost right now ! I have taken so much asprin I think I have killed my body!!

I am looking madly to find O2 but I was told not without a perscription

You need to stop taking the Aspirin or any other over the counter pain relievers or pain killers. They will not help with CH and over use can lead to many serious side effects. I just do not know what else to say, other than if the pain gets too bad, go to the emergency room. As I said earlier, some folks get relief with hot or cold showers, exercise, and heavy doses of caffiene.
Perhaps there are others here that do not have any medical coverage that will have some more useful suggestions.

You can get it through a welding supply company without a prescription. Just tell them thaty your husand uses it for welding..

You can rent a tank of 02 at a welding supply store, I will send you a regulator that will fit the tank if you like. (Free of charge)

Post by CrystalAnn on May 5^th, 2006, 5:29pm

thank you so much I am looking right now for a welding supply store

is it easy to use a regulator ?

if you need my contact info let me know THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR HELP!

Just knowing I am not alone helps me

You should read the info here:

http://www.maplefallswebdesign.com/misc/oxygen/oxygen.htm

To familiarize yourself with the equipment you will need. The bubbler is not essential, but will humidify the O2 and keep you from drying out too bad.

Post by Jonny on May 5^th, 2006, 5:37pm

All you do is connect the regulator to the tank using a wrench (Make sure its tight) and then just open the tank up and breath through the mask.

You will need to go to a medical supply store and buy a Non-rebreather (<<thats key) mask.

Do not tell the folks at the welding supply store that you will be breathing the 02, ok?

Let me know when you get the tank and then I will get your address.
