Ive had clusters for 18 years now ,last bout for 6 months. One of my friends has Parkinsons disease and an other has MS,
I wouldnt trade Ch for what they have and so Im feel pretty thankful that I have Drugs that can partially control the pain .18 years ago when I first got them I suffered through months of pain with nothing for relief.
When I was first daignoised the Doctor told me that when he started to pratice medicine that most people that suffered from Ch, committed suicide or overdosed on drugs. This is not the case today , I feel that we are very fortunate to have Place like this to get information and Doctors that know how to treat our problem .
I think Im very lucky - Wayne
