Long overdue update
Jun 30th, 2012 at 3:55pm
 
Hello my friends,
Been a long time since I've been here and I'm not sure any of you will even remember me. This site was my home away from home for nearly 2 years while I was in my 1st cycle (Dec.22, 2009 thru June 20, 2011) I have been headache free now for about 1 year thank you God. Still have some permanent nerve damage and eye droop but I can live with that.I made some major life changes that I can also honestly say have also helped. I also resorted to Nerve Block treatments for over 8 mo., every 5-6 weeks, of Lidocaine and Steroid and finally received Botox shots in my head in Feb. 2011. Medications I was taking (Verapamil 600mg daily and Amitriptalene) were not affective and caused me many bad side affects. Oxygen also had little affect on me.
So many of you here became an important part of my survival through those very desperate days of searching for help and relief. You know who you are...and I cannot thank you enough for all your kindness and support.

Thanks so much for writing. We need to hear from those with the courage and endurance to get through the difficult situations, where the fix is not magical, but when a tough soul wins out.
