Thanks friends

Hang in there brother. Your story is similar to mine.

My mom can't learn anything cuz she already knows it all.

Thought I'd watched them all but somehow I missed this clusterbusters YouTube video.....until just a few minutes ago!! I've had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know almost everyone featured several times over the past 13 years! Be forewarned, grab a hanky or some tissues before watching as this video may result in eye leakage...

Count me as also sorry to hear of the dreaded high cycle @Rod H, but here's to your dog, and to that great, beastless retirement road trip.

Sorry to hear that @Rod H. Hope you kick the beast soon!

Aww... your poor mom most likely is offering up all she knows to try and be helpful. I'm sure it's hard on her to know you suffer! My husband tries to help but get's so frustrated with his inability to make anything better that at times I feel bad for him! I've learned to just stay (try and stay) out of ear shot or visual sight from him when being pummeled. Here's to hoping you stay in the clear my friend!

I'm gonna fwd that to my mom. Now that she is 72 maybe she will stop offering aspirin.

Thank you CHfather, The energy drink effect on me has been a godsend. Cluster manifested last night and the trick seemed to work again as an abortive. Within 10 minutes I was back to sleep. Yes. I will stop daytime caffeine to preserve effectiveness and Thank you, will look into the 5 hour energy especially if there is waining effectiveness. Re. Oxygen I am convinced I must be doing it wrong in some way and am going to give it another try, but will watch Bill Mingus's oxygen breathing techniques and get the Clustermask as well.

I've been in high cycle for bout a week. I danced with pickles yesterday afternoon and when the dancing stopped the beast tossed me around for a bit. Got close to a full night's sleep. I've found the only person in my household who understands is my dog. Wife and kids go there own way. No sense in sharing this pain with others. Gives me time to plan my great road trip in retirement.
