Title: 4 nights in a row-NEW Record
Post by Superirish2005 on Aug 25^th, 2006, 10:44am

In all the years I have been getting epidsodic clusters about 4-6 weeks a year I have NEVER gotten 4 nights in a row until this week.

Not only that but the last two mornings I have woken up and had another cluster by 8:00am.

I have taken 7 maxalt tablets this week already and that stuff is EXPENSIVE

Unfortunately thats about the size of it.

If it makes you feel any better my longest cycle was 9 months with 2 attacks each night without fail. Think of it as a bonus that you haven't had the night attacks previously.

Just enjoy what time you do have painfree and educate yourself. Try all the treatments available to you, and see if you can get some 02. Good luck and have a painfree week!

Superirish2005, Can you think of anything that you may have done different such as meds or sleep patterns/ I have figured that the docs can do no more than we help them to do.
Oh yeah, when you are getting hit it really doesn't matter how much this stuff costs, does it. ::)
