After over seven weeks of agony I have had my first day of no pain. While experiencing a CH for the first time it is hard to believe your doctor that the pain will not last forever. At times I got so depressed that I cried if someone looked at me. Of course that just made the pain worse. I hope I am one of the lucky ones who has years in between attacks.
My condition was hard to treat because I am taking Warfarin and have to be very careful of medications that I use. One of your group suggested a technique to me where I think the pain out of my head. Guess what it worked. I also am now on a regimen of Salsalate which seems to work for me. Thanks to those of you who lent me your support. It's sure easier to talk to those who don't think your crazy.
