Haven't posted for awhile, really can't give any good advice on dealing with clusters so didn't post. But would come on from time to time to see familiar names.
My last spell lasted 3 months, went med free and put many hours on my oxygen concentrator, then the suckers just stopped. I did buy a Bio-tek O2 percent meter, concentrator pumps out 95% O2 at 6 lpm, not bad, but the concentrator has been resting for some time now. Was concerned about hay fever season that acted as a trigger, not even a sniffle this year. Been so long since I had a CH, hope for myself, as I do for all of you, you can forget these things.
Built a one car garage in my back yard to park my Supra to clean up my attached garage, but my two at home sons got new used cars, so we took each one apart and gave it everything it needed to make it almost like new. Both boys are away to college. Also quit dog breeding, placed five Shepherds, just kept one, so just Natasha and me at home. Life is much simpler now.
Even started dating again, lots of women out there, but apprehensive about getting involved, kind of nice just worrying about myself and dog, and really nothing to worry about, needs are simple and do what I want when I feel like doing it. Quite a change from raising six kids for all those years. But that has nothing to do with getting clusters, the suckers have a mind of their own.
Best wishes to all, especially during these tragic times. Nick
