I've had CH for 35 years. I'm 50 now and started regularly running and lifting weights late 30's.
I had an almost 3 year remission and this past May they returned, with my first really bad one coming on after a 10k race. I use O2 pretty successfully but my favorite pastime now is hiking and can't carry O2 with. Recently got Imitrex - life saver for hiking - usually gets me around mile 8-10, inject and 5 min. back on the trail. Also started taking Magnesium about 2 weeks ago and all of a sudden my clusters are gone at night-a miracle and I hiked yesterday without getting one. May be just a coincidence but whatever, wanted to share with all of you.
