Sorry for all the pain you are going through. I have found that I don't even tell anyone I have CH, they wouldn't understand any how and it is too complicated to try to get the lay person to understand.
I kept it from my Baby (my guy) for 10 years. He knew I had headaches, but I guess he thought they were like the Migraines his sister and mother suffer from. I told him I had Clusters, but he had never seen me with one full blown, that is until December 28. He knows now. I still don't want him around when I am full blown. It is just too embarrassing for me. It really scared him and he said my face was actually drawn and that he did notice my droopy eye. I never look in the mirrow when I am in full blown, so when others mentioned that on the web, I didn't know if I did or not.
I guess we just have to rely on each other here to vent our feelings and hopes that one day this nightmare will end.
Today at this very minute is not soon enough for me. Had a 9+ at 1:05 this morning.
