I get migrain es from hell and I get clusters. I'm laughing to myself rii ght now, thinking about which I'd choose. Please, Please god give me the migraine.
There is no such thing as elitest pain. There is a clear cut choice involved as far as which is worst. Many of us, most of us, wo uldn't poo poo someone else's pain. If someone came up to me with a stress headache, I would be as concerned and helpful as someone with a cluster. When it comes to this board, don't mix the two up. I'ts hard enough to get accurate information, and the awareness we need, withh out mixing in migraine symptoms, treatments and info. There are migraine boards out there for that. I think that is what people here have a problem with. It's not that we think we are above someone with migraines. That thought is too silly.
Paco isn't belittling anyone's pain, and happens to be a really cool guy when it comes to compassion. I think, i won't spea k for him, but i think he makes a good point. You can't mistake the one for the other. I'ts not possible.
