I just went through the easiest cycle I've ever had.  I started to feel glimpses of pain right before Christmas, same as last year.  For the first time, I had some shrooms right as the cycle was starting.  I took a small amount on 1/2.  The following day I was hit with a nasty rebound headache that lasted a solid 3hrs.  On the 4th and the 6th, I had very minor(maybe kip4)hits.  After that, I had some shadowing that was easily aborted with Red Bull.    One week, one nasty HA, two minor ones, and that was it.  Clusterbusters is a F'n life saver!

My cycles generally last for about 3 weeks once a year, with about 7-10 attacks.  I've busted with shrooms and seeds in the past, but never right at the onset of a cycle. 

Pain free days to all!
