Hello
Aug 7^th, 2012 at 11:19pm

Hi folks, I'm another newbie to the site and just wanted to say hello. I'm Craig from Fort Mill, SC, and this has been going on almost non-stop for 13 months. The longest break that I've had so far has been 9 days without, and the longest stretch with has been 3 per day for 28 days.
Haven't really found anything to stop them yet, I've been on Imatrex, Verapamil, Prednisone, Imotriptoline and Topimax. The latest thing that I just tried today is the O2 and that seemed to work better than anything that I've tried yet.
I don't talk to anyone about about how much pain I'm in due to these HA's, I don't like to worry my wife (she's and RN), so when they hit I try to just go off by myself for a while until I'm fit to be around ppl again.
Thanks for being here.

You love lots of things if you live around them. But there isn't any woman and there isn't any horse, that’s as lovely as a great airplane. If it's a beautiful fighter, your heart will be ever there

Hey there, Craig, and welcome! I'm not sure what Batch sent you so I don't want to cover ground you may have already covered. It's not clear from your post if you have been prescribed the meds in therapeutic doses. Are you working with a headache specialist? Sometimes that can make a huge difference. Ask any questions, read and buck up! Help is on the way. blessings. lance
