I have had two attacks since last night, used up all my oxygen, it's was 3 o'clock, holiday weekend, every one is closed, LUCKILY, my family doctor was in his office doing paperwork and just happened to answer the phone, I told him what was going on and said stop by and pick one up you can keep it until Tuesday. I owe him my life. I went two days without an attack was actually thinking that the prednisone had kicked it, and myabe it was over until next year. HAHAHA I am going to find a new doctor, I will start interviewing them, and I'LL let them know if they are good enough for ME. I hear alot of people saying that they know they are going to get an attack when their eye droops, this does happen to me, but later in the game, mine first starts with a pain and burning in my nose. How strange is this (like there the whole cluster thing isn't strange!!) I am continuing to read all of your entries and I'm am getting to know you guys and I have to say it is so refreshing to see that you all still have a really good sense of humor. I am blessed in one respect, my clusters can stay in "remission for up to 3 years, although this time it's only been a year, my heart breaks for the people I have been reading about that get them all the time day in and day out. I give you my utmost respect. I want to know why it is that I never had them while being pregnant??? I have had my homrmone levels checked but they are ok, maybe I'll just have to keep having babies ( na, threes enough for me) I wish that we could have a peaceful weekend for all, best wishes to you all, susanh
