Birdman,

I will have an extra e tank regulator in a day or so, goes to 15 lpm. Let me know if you are still having trouble getting the right one and I will overnight it to you as soon as my new one arrives. Glad to hear you are hanging in there.

David

I am fascinated by this - thank you for the journal, will be watching for more.

Wishing you PF days and nights, and some peace too.

As the various snake oil salesman say on our message board.....I have found the cure for cluster headaches!!! It is the Mets taking four in a row from the Yankees and the Phillies and I feel great. Okay all kidding aside the day was good and the night has been even better. A small hit around 1pm easily aborted, a little stronger hit around 2:25 a little harder to get rid of but nothing major. No hits again till a little after 5pm and then a small one again easily aborted with 02 and then the final one at 6:45 again a little 02 and gone. The rest of the night was a twinge, a shadow, etc nothing to get on the 02 about. Actually I think the most pain I have been in today is from a horribly stiff neck which I have read on other peoples posts is a common side effect from the RC seeds. You have to understand that even though I am episodic my cycles ramp up very fast and stay with me for up to 14 months, even switching sides of my face as winter approaches. This cycle began about 3 and a 1/2 weeks ago and normally I would be getting hit a least 4 times a day up to 8 or more. I don't want to get to exited yet but it has been 5 days since my last dose and the last three have been better than the one before. I am scheduled to dose tomorrow night, I am going to grind 60 and soak them about 14 hours and drink my "cocktail" just before bed (after I do my evening post, I would hate to read what I might write if I did it the other way). I am very curious to see if the 3rd dose creates the bad attacks that I had after the first two, nothing like experimenting on ones self. That's it for tonight I hope you all have a pain free night and a great day tomorrow.

PS: Birdman I got my new one, I will ship you out my extra tomorrow.

I can tell you this much - whenever the Yankees lose, Potter's world makes a little less sense.

One of these days I am going to learn not to f*&k with the devil. Started day 6 of post dose 2 with a very minor attack at 8am that was easily aborted with my trusty 02. I then proceeded to work on preparing my "cocktail" for dose 3 tonight. As I promised I am writing this prior to the dose because who the heck knows what might have come out of my typing fingers if I did this post my dose. I tried my new seed grinder and it did not work, I think these seeds are just too damn hard for it, I also had no success with the pepper mill so I used my coffee grinder again to chop 60 little guys. They have been soaking in water and lemon for over 12 hours and I am sure it is going to taste oh so good LOL. As to my opening line after my little hit this morning I attended another networking event that was to end at 1:30. I started feeling the beast lurking as the meeting was getting close to ending but I decided I could make it till the end since the last few days have gone so well. And I say again when am I going to learn. I waited to long to get to the 02 and by the time I got to my car and got on the 02 I was already ramped up to a 5 and going to a 9 fast. You know the rest, took 30 minutes and most of an e to get rid of it, is it just me or are most cluster heads stubborn? Anyway the rest of the day was okay, a few minor and medium hits, and one around 7pm that took awhile to abort but never got above a 2.5 Kip. Well, I am looking at a disgusting looking glass of brown water with things laying at the bottom of it and it is waiting for me to come drink it. If in the long run this works I don't think I will call it disgusting looking ever again. PF night to all, and I will see you tomorrow night with my post dose results.

David

Hope your cocktail was successful.  I am sending out positive vibes hoping you/we have pf days ahead.

Sounds good.

Yes the last two nights the Mets haven't helped my ch's, but at least they didn't blow a six run lead today. LOL

Three straight good post dose days, minor hits and very little 02 needed. It isn't quite remission but it is beginning to feel like it does when I am cycling out. I am so hopeful that this is successful, not just for me but for our whole community. It could be another example of alternative "medicine" working for what ails us. Maybe if this continues to work and others are inspired to try it with good results the powers that be will take a little more notice. Have a Happy and pain free Memorial Day and remember those who have made the ultimate  sacrifice for our country.

First off, thanks a mil for the regulator, been a life saver this weekend already.  Secondly, happy you are getting positive reults.  Hope they continue and please keep us posted.  I must admit that I am very jealous.

I have fought through it the last three days,  no trex since Friday at 9:00.  Wednesday night I am gonna hit it again.  Haven't had sleep in too long.  Can't get more then two or three hours at a clip.  Melatonin not helping.  Trying to stay the fight but it is getting hard.  02 has been good but not perfect.  Had some k7-8 at least twice a day slip past the 02.

Day 4 of post dose: a little tougher but after reading birdmans post I am not complaining. A few more hits and a little harder to abort but again very manageable. I am planning my 4th and final (?) dose for Wednesday night which will be a full week in between. If anyone reading this had done this before please let me know if I should stop after 4 or if I am still getting attacks should I keep going? I hope everyone had a peaceful and pain free Memorial Day.

David

PS: Birdman PM me if you want to talk, I will send you my phone #.
