Title: hello again
Post by killakeepa on Jul 8^th, 2006, 11:14am

hey everyone, its been a while since ive been on here, about 2 years to be exact, but my cycle just started up again...it was a 2 year, awesome, but not long enough remission from these wonderful things, but now theyre back.
i was wondering if anyone had any insight to this question...when i was about 16 ( a year before these started) i had Belle's palsy. I was reading on the clusterbuster site about the nerve that CH affects and it is the same nerve that goes "dead" with Belle's palsy. I was wondering if any of you had ever had this before your CH started, and/or if there may be any connection.
I hope you are all doing well and wish you all my best!

Tim

Had a buddy with Belle's Palsy but that's the closest connection to me. Welcome back, had a 2 year remission myself, it was heavenly!!!!

Knew a fellow with Belle's Palsey, but he didn't have CH. I also know a woman whose mother had a brain tumor that affected the trigeminal nerve, though, and she's ended up with severe episodic pain that resembles CH.

Sorry you're getting them again. Here's hoping that when your current cycle is over that your next remission will be even longer.

Regards,

George
