I've seen your incognito Facebook page buddy . Didn't want to put it out there but as you've asked I've had no choice

I put the official stamp of Jeebs "Like" on the Clusterheads Poem, but I do think these last two lines from it are worth qualifying: Unless you are a clusterhead You haven't got a clue I've long considered @CHfather to be an official clusterhead whether he wants to or not. This guy has consistently come to the rescue of tremendous numbers of fellow clusterheads on the forum over the decade, and while many may not realize it, all while going through the ultra severe pain/afflictions/hospitalizations wringer and them some himself - he's one individual whose severe health experiences I would actually not wish to trade for my own. Then with his own child a clusterhead, he's "got a clue" and then some. So here's a New Year's toast of infinite gratitude to one Clusterhead with a capital C who has made such a huge difference for so many of us, an individual who I shudder to think what Cluster Busters would have ever been like without, the hyper vigilant, ultra knowledgeable, incredibly empathetic dude who keeps the cluster info real, and who I find myself now building up into some kind of God-like figure, or at least a patron saint of headbangers, Chfather.

...if you want or need the protein powder consider different brands and formulations....me i wouldn't touch 'em w/o a lot of research. a single like the whey protein spiny used seems best. the lower the number of ingredients the better chance of narrowing down your trigger(s). many have aspartame to "sweeten" as the powder itself is pretty yucky...known trigger for many. hydrolyzed protein is another name for MSG another known trigger, glutamic acid converts to glutamate in the body, migraineurs are advised to avoid. basically amino acids and their various forms can be or are "vasoactive" so potential triggers. the taurine in energy drinks being one....my neuro forbade it's use as being TOO vasoactive and "we don't know enough about"... ...i tried a google search...there's lots of info out there....consider reliable sources (.orgs and Mayo clinic types) for discussion....

Brain Pain:The illumination,In advance,You reject,I'm rendered naked, and splayed,Unarmed to your un-welcome intrusion,Arsenal of prophylactics,Beaten and humbled, by your stopover.The thunder is here,No hiding now,It's gone right,Right to the righteous region of the brain.Knees suddenly relevant,I rock, back and forth,Making even a mechanical horsey look dull,Prayers fly from my lips,My mind, my soul.They seem to go unanswered forever,At certain seconds, that I am positive are years...I concede my faith...I am repentant when the thunder subsides.Left only to wonder if the reprieve,Was your handy work?I suppose I'll never know,Unless my faith,I allow to grow! I know this won't hit home with all as all are not religious but I re-read this from time to time to help me remember how far I've come in dealing. Best to you all!
