Hello friends:
It's been about 6 months or so from my last post! During that time I have enjoyed pain free days and nights and no "knife in my right temple" since January 8th.
That is until this past Sunday when 2 of my old devils visited me. (They must have realy missed me to gang up on me like that) The first one came in the middle of the afternoon during a hike with my family, who ended up seeing once again
what we go through during an attack. Luckily I carry a pocket full of Amadrine, so I ate 2 and within an hour or so I could rejoin life somewhat. The second one came at my favorite time of the day 11PM, about an hour after falling asleep.
I grabbed my Imitrex nasal and got it in my system as quickly as I could. This stuff realy is amazing! The Imitrex supply was the leftover batch from my last cycle and it still worked fine. Last night 11PM I am awakened with the creeping menace in
my neck and head. I took the Amadrine again and was able to fall back asleep in about 1 hour. This morning I feel like I was run over by a truck.
I pray that this will not turn into a nightly ritual like it has so many times before, that my nights will not be filled with pain beyond description, but escpecialy that my wife and children wont be exposed yet again to me wallowing in pain and unable
to talk or do anything with them. That is not the type of legacy I want to leave them.
Thanks for letting me vent................
Pain free days and nights to all,
Bob J
