Today I had my first attack since March 15, 2000. For over 8 months I went pain free from my cluster headache nightmare. Today started yet another cycle of my enemy. I've had two bouts today and the fight is still on. I live in fear of when the next headache will start and continuous fear of how it now affects my life. I graduated from college in May and was in full hopes that my war with Satan (aka Cluster Headaches) had finally come to an end. I'm now working full time and I can see that the enemy is going to affect my productivity at work. My co-workers look at me with concern as I clinch for dear life as I battle through my ordeal. It starts again. The questions, the wonder, the "I know what your going through"'s, the try this - try that, and you all know the rest. For over 8 great months I lived free, but now I'm apart of the club again. Hello, my name is Rich Words and I suffer from cluster headaches. I'm here to continue the fight. I joined the club on Feb. 22, 1995 and one day I'll be able to leave this cluster headache club. Wishing you all pain free days...
