I am sitting here with this site that my wife found for me. I am finding it so hard to believe that there are so many of you out there that suffer as badly or worse than I do. I think that it is really unfair that there is nothing we can do about these headaches besides suffer with them. I started this cycle the week of Christmas "nice present"!!! I am now in full swing experiencing at least 3-5 per day and lasting between 30 mins to 3 hours depending on how fast I can get the meds into me. The imatrex nasal spray is the newest thing i tried tonight and it didn't work. The doctor has prescribed neurontin as a prevent and it has kind of made them tollerable for the first few weeks. Tonight I have experienced my worst, and my wife is typing this as I speak. I feel happy but sad that we found this site. Happy because we're not alone. Sad because we some how hoped that there would be a cure for this somewhere along the way. If there is no help for all of you. Why would there be help for me? I have once been hospitalized where they administered a drug that was so deadly that they hooked me up to monitors. That only helped for a week and they soon returned, it did shorten the duration. I dont think people take us seriously, they dont realize the pain we are suffering. I feel like we dont have any support when we go through this because people just think I get "headaches" and refuse to believe its a neurological disorder. thanks I'm glad I found you all... you'll be hearing from us
