Title: Well here i am and thanks
Post by Charlie M on Sep 28th, 2003, 6:30pm
Hi, I'm new to this. just found out that I'm a clusterhead and this has nothing to do with sinuse or migraines. For years that was it, at least then i had something to blame. Something that if I found the trigger I would not have it. Well how wrong could I have been. Its nice to know that I'm not alone but am terribly sorry that any of us have to be here. My wife Chia has been searching for info and posting. Typing is not my forte. so she has been a tremoudous help and i want to thank her and the people that have answered and supported her and me  ::) with love Charlie

Nice to make your acquaintance, Charlie.  I'm sorry you have the need to be here but since you do.....welcome.

I was hoping Chia would get you to join us.

Don't worry about you typing ability......Jonny, our "#1 poster boy(dude)" is a two-finger typer... ;D

Welcome....

ah.....the Husband of Chia speaks...... :)


Welcome Sir, and I hope the guidance any of us have given has helped you find at least a little peace. The board has been a lifesaver for many here and I hope that you will benefit from it as much as I. Pay no mind to grammatical mistakes and spelling errors........here, the keyboard is your friend, feel free to be as bad a typist as you wish ,it matters not. Here's to finding meds and support for you and Chia.

We're going to have to call you Charlie M as we have another Charlie who's been here almost forever.

Your wife found the right place for you to be and we are glad that you found us.  We've tried just about everything possible and have either adopted it or tossed it out.  Our archives go back almost 5 years, and cover a whole heck of a lot.......just put a day aside and study.

What meds have you tried?  

We have a wonderful place here on this site for your wife under the Supporters section....supporters need someone who understands to talk to also.

Then we have the Family Services Team which you will find on the OUCH site under Cluster Help. You can e-mail this confidential group  at clusterbuds@hotmail.com

For spiritual requests, e-mail the ClusterAngels at ChAngels@hotmail.com.....another confidential service.

Hope you find what works for you.

Welcome CharlieM...sorry you had to find us, but welcome aboard! You have a great supporter in Chia as she has asked questions & done a lot of homework. Read all you can here & ask away...there is no question to "silly or stupid" we are all in the same CH Boat as either a sufferer or supporter.

Welcome Charlie! Sorry you need to be here but sure glad you are! This is the best place that you can be if you are a CHer. There is alot of information here as you have found out and have been told by others before me. So, grab a seat, get comfy and start reading ... Cootie will be around later to give you your oar to help rowing.

Welcome to Clusterville Charlie,

Don't ever worry about typing or spelling. We can figure out what you're saying. Most of us are reading with one eye closed anyhow or tears rolling down so everything blurred anyhow.  We don't give out grades so don't sweat the small stuff.....

Feel free to vent, complain, gripe, shout, bang your head or whatever (go ahead and call me names - I live for abuse!!!!) whatever helps -- we're here for SUPPORT. I doubt that you can go through anything that one or more of us haven't already been through and lived to tell about it. So see, you are NOT alone any more. You got a whole NOTHER family to help you now.

Welcome aboard..... now get to work and start rowing....

Hugs BD
