What kind of shots did they give you in your head? I had a CH for a 12-day period...longest for me ever...longest before 3 days.
During that 12-day period or series,,,,not everyday did I have a 10 on the Kip scale...did have 2 during that time period...I am nocturnal and my 10+ usually come without warning and during the hours between 1 - 4 a.m.
During the 12-day period, I had shadows that lingered, ones that went up to 8 or 9, but not a solid 10 for that long...I agree with DJ on that one...Maybe you meant that you had one that still had the shadows for 18 days..Is that what you meant? I too would wonder about that diagnosis since you only began to have clusters in Feb.
Let us know about the shots,,,,look at the Kip Scale on the left side of this board, print it out for your use in describing your headaches...
Girl, my heart goes out to you...Glad you found us...Maybe you won't be as frustrated as we have been in finding good medical information right from the beginning....For some of us, we have been stumbling in the dark for over 35 years.
