Title: The brothers bloom was a great movie...
Post by jmac on Jun 5th, 2010 at 12:41am
Too bad it set off a massive cluster headache that is still going on!!!!!!  an hour and a half ago it hit... Couldn't even watch the last 5 minutes of the movie.  So, I started in with pushups... but wait... thats what I did this morning.  My chest is so worn out that I can only do like 3 at a time.  Ok, I'll try jumping jacks... yeah... not working.  30 minutes later... See ya honey... I'm going for a freakin run at midnight.  an hour and a half later... still a strong shadow...  I fear it is going to be one of those nights.  I thought I could get through this cycle.... Oxygen here I come.  The quest is on.  (the push ups aborted 2 attacks last night... one within 20 minutes and the other within 30 minutes)

That sucks. :'( The only negative thing for me about getting oxygen is I stopped being in such great shape. I did the 30 minutes of hard running at the start of an attack! Now I just sit on my ever widening butt, huff 02 for 10 minutes, and kiss the beast good bye. Hope it works as well for yoy.

Sorry to hear that Jmac.

Yeah I find that the extreme exercise type tricks can work for about the first week of an episode but the intensity builds and by the end of the week I've hopefully scrambled enough to acquire the big guns necessary to blow the beast away (Hi Flow Non Rebreather O2, etc.).

Glad to hear that you're going to whip out the 'ol beast killer arsenal.

Thanks for the input.  I am growing tired of trying to beat it with physical activity.  I have gotten in great shape though! LOL... but i need these to end.  lack of sleep is killing me.  I need some relief! Peace!
