i mean during ch as in the abortive measures.
At one time heat helps u and cold makes it worse(or vise versa)
and next time u find that it works the opposite ??

The last two months i ve found on my surprise that heat which was always a friend of mine doesn't only help nowmore but makes it worser!
And cold as cold packs which i always hated as for making pain worser is now a very good help!!???

has this ever happened to u??   

i've also found that a hot shower would work as an an abortive early in cycle. at high cycle your abortives will be less effective. its a bitch

Hot is a trigger for me in cycle.  Hot baths make me shadow.

I have always liked the cold modalities.  I found even lying on the cold cement, on the front porch, helped relieve a hit.  Now, I always have cold ice packs in the freeze just in case I need them.

For the first five years or so of getting CH, I would make myself a scalding hot cup of tea, and drink it while breathing into the cup to let the steam hit me in the face and head.  Or use a heat pack.  This worked really well for me for a few years during attacks, because I hadnt even been properly diagnosed yet, and no idiot doctor ever gave me the correct treatment.  Now heat is a killer to me.  In fact if its winter i will go outside and stick my face and head in the snow for a while.  My husband is afraid I am going to get frostbite.  ha ha.

anyway, if the heat is helping you try the tip with the hot drink,  just remember to breathe into the cup and let the steam warm your eye and head.   Good luck
