Richard,
I married my bride of 15 years and forgot to tell her about the HA. I had good reason. My bouts have always been so sporadic 6 mos-4 years between them. It really slipped my drug abusing mind(I am no longer a user). The first one I had that she witnessed was a 10, woke me up from a dead sleep, barely made it to the throne to empty my stomach.My eye drooped, as a matter of fact the whole right side of my face drooped and back then there wasn't Imitrex (that I knew of). She was so scared and confused and how could I forget about something that affect me in such a devastating manner. Well Bro she has stayed with me through all this and supported me and tried to understand my pain. I am a man blessed more than most. If your fiancee is able to stick around she is a VERY VERY strong person indeed. My prayers are for ya.
