I don't know about other CH's, but during/after my attacks I think I come off as real grouchy jerk (afterwards I feel bad for sounding like an A$$hole) But these headaches just really suck and you just don't want to hear any kind of suggestions when you are having them. I'll never know how my wife finally talked me into going to the ER during one but I can't thank her enough. I got lucky and there was a doctor who knew what they were and I finally got the right medication for them. Sometimes they(meds.) do make you want to hurl though, and the meer thought of taking them again is just disgusting. I think the only thing you can do is try to see if you can get J to the ER on the next one. But riding in a car isn't much of a fun thought either during that time. But God bless your heart for trying to help a CH!!!!
