Good that you have a firm diagnosis Bass! Even better that you're getting an O2 rig together....high flow oxygen be it medical or welding is a clusterheads lifesaver!! The Clustero2kit that you have on order is the Cadillac!! But, to be completely honest, I'm not sure how you'd go about sourcing a standard non rebreather mask from a local supplier without a script for O2.....you might inquire at a durable medical goods supplier. Hopefully someone else with experience will be able to direct you on this matter! Good luck! Dallas Denny

Congratulations on your long "REMISSION"!! But, I have to agree with Chf and BOF....there is no "CURE" for ch to date and your post is highly suspect by saying you're cured and then not elaborating.....but then again, it would be hard for you to elaborate since a "cure" doesn't exist!! DD

Welcome back Brian! DD

@CHfather. I found the old clustercluster.com site in 2007 by clicking the "clusterbusters" in the old ch dot com navigation bar.....it was strictly a website then with all of the info that's in Tommy D's files and there was one of those password protected "Yahoo groups" for discussion......I know the vast majority of us who joined this forum when it went live came from DJ's board because the launch was announced there so have no idea how we would have found this place thru a search back then!! Bless you DJ! Dallas Denny

I'm going to go ahead and post this a few days early as I may not have the time this weekend! This board went live on October 27th in 2009! I joined that day so it will also mark 10 years of active membership here for me as well!! We all owe a deep debt of gratitude to DJ for helping with getting the original yabb powered board up and running!! I can honestly say that being a part of clusterbusters this past 10 years has been by far the most rewarding experience of my life!! DD

Good to hear you're on the mend Brian! DD

Home safe!! Another phenomenal conference, we are so blessed by Bob, Eileen and and the many volunteers who tireless efforts give our tribe the opportunity to gather like this every year!! It was so very cool to meet sooo many 1st timers who are relatively new comers in this community!. Its amazing how much this thing has grown since my first in Portland 2009! The agenda has become so full of speakers that we need 1 more conference day so it's not quite as busy and we have more time to socialize! I'll post later about the highlights but for now I'm about to go lay on the bed and inspect the back of my eyelids for a couple hours!! DD

Quick update before I pass out!! Great turnout with many new faces!! Had an awesome time at the Presidents reception! I spoke to one of the clusterbusters board of directors (and official conference photographer) this evening and she will submit all of her photos to our Website person so she can make them available to the forum!! And, the film crew isn't coming til tomorrow so they'll actually be filming one of the grow demos that will be included in an upcoming clusterbusters documentary!! Tim made it already and 2 other folks gave up on getting out of the airport, took an uber to greyhound and are on a bus headed this way! And had the pleasure of meeting Freud and FunTimes......but theres severals that I haven't met yet although I know they're here! Looks like we'll easily top 200 attendees....don't think it will break the record but it's a long way from the 40ish bunch of us in 2010!! G'nite ya'll

@dmlonghorn @Brain on fire Tim Flanagan is having issues getting out of Houston bound for big D on Greyhound as well.......a couple others have reported rain delays but are enroute......Freud missed his flight but will be here this evening! Hugged lots of old friends and made some new ones already....lots of first timers which is way cool!!! Just saw Batch when he arrived and got to visit with doc B for a spell Eileen and Andrew were able to get the pdf doc of the grow demos downloaded from my phone and clusterbusters is going to host it so it will be available via a link after the conference.....and.....BobW informed me yesterday that a film crew is coming today to film a run thru of tomorrow's grow demo sessions!! I wish to hell they'd hurry up cuz it's damn sure 5 o'clock somewhere and I'm gettin fairly damned thirsty! Great venue for a conference thus far and Presidents reception coming up shortly!! Since I'm severely technically challenged and have real issues with uploading pics here, I'm going to see if I can get a couple folks to send me their photos to put up on dropbox and will post the link! Later ya'll

G'mornin ya'll! About to start loading up the car and get on the road....expect to get to Grapevine by mid morning!! I went to a 3 day music festival with all Texas bands (ZZ Top was the headliner!) In Grapevine during the summer of '71 but that's another story entirely.....the parts of I can remember anyway...lmao!! Already several folks there and quite a few more getting in this morning!! Safe travels to all and see ya'll soon!!!! DD

G'mornin Ken Just spoke to our conference chairwoman to verify that you can check out an O2 cylinder to take to your room at the Hilton...needs to be returned by Sunday afternoon. DD

Hot damn Brian!! That is some OUTSTANDING FECKING NEWS dude!! When do you arrive in Big D? I'm leaving okieland early Weds morning for my 88 mile journey to Grapevine....all but the first 5 miles of gravel county road is major freeway and tollway driving and I don't even have to go thru the Metromess to get there!! Wooo Hoooo! Almost (but not quite) makes me feel guilty for saying that...lol.....I have two longtime clusterhead friends coming.....Lady A left Scotland for Germany this morning to hook up with Hans and fly on to Dallas.....she's already in the air and they won't get to Big D til early tomorrow!! Yeah, maybe I do feel a little guity!! Stopping along the way to pick up a case of Colorado Koolaid longnecks to go with that pizza!! Safe travels my friend and see ya soon!! DD

G'mornin Clovis! The regulator you have is insufficient for most clusterheads!! When I tried O2 for the 1st time it was with an 8 lpm reg and it wasn't effective! Most of us need a minimum of 15 lpm and many folks use 25 lpm regs. DD

Hey 8! I know several chronics that are having very good results with ketamine nasal spray. From my experiences with the VA that would probably be a hard sell with any of their docs though! When I still relied on the VA for medical treatment they let me have 9 imitrex dose packs per month....are they only giving you the imitrex pills? DD
