Hey Keith, Welcome back to the community!! Sorry the beast found your address again though!! Unfortunately, in the past year those of us who have posted about our use of mycobags, have had limited success.....but, some success will get you started!!! The PF Tek method is what everyone seems to be having to most luck with.....relatively simple and fairly cheap to get started. You can find an excellent set of 4 videos on youtube......search Lets grow mushrooms......watch the 4 part series by "MushroomRR" for a complete rundown on the PF Tek. Hope this helps and again, Welcome Back!! Dallas Denny

Hey Ya'll!! Spring's not that far away so thought would put this up today.....our first attempt last year was official Spring weekend (Mar 19 - 21) and we had beautiful weather all week until Fri the 19th when it rained, and then of course followed by snow on Sat!! The followup get together was in mid July and we all about melted!!! Besides that, it took huge amounts of adult beverages to stay hydrated!! Dan was in town a few weeks ago and we talked about late April???? I've added quite a few new folks to my "clusterhead" email group who wanted to be notified when the date was set for this year. So who all's comin and when is the best time for everyone?? Dallas Denny

Hey Eric!! Sorry to hear the beast reared it's ugly head!! Sounds like the busting continues to be successful for you though and that's great!! Dallas Denny

Welcome to the community....sorry you had the need to find us though!!! You'll find a wealth of information and a great group of supporters here. Believe me, we all understand your frustration with docs......sadly, for now that seems to go with the territory!! Keep after him for the O2 or look into putting a welding O2 rig together......O2 therapy is by far the best bullet I've been able to put in my gun for the beast!!! Sending PF thought and wishes this Christmas morning!! Welcome Home!! Dallas Denny

Hi Leslie, Got curious, went back and looked....it was our friend lamplighter that we had that conversation with....lmao!! And then Ron got into it with this post: "Maybe a bunch of us could get together and have a nude inocul-in. Howzat sound? Ron " And of course, the thread just went down hill from there...lol!! DD

Very well said Sarge!! I wholeheartedly agree!! Welcome to the community Les!! On a positive note for me, I love licorice candy!!! lol!!! Hell, we're gonna keep findin all these different natural remedies for CH.......one of these days we'll all be wearin little leather medicine pouches around our necks......a little licorice root, a few SPUTS, a few RC seeds...... Dallas Denny

Wow Johnny!! Hadn't thought bout this guy in years!!! Here's the Eagles doin one of his tunes.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebH1v-OLWhY&feature=related DD

OK Siv!! I will admit that I was one of them.....and very amused when I found out that I wasn't the only one....perhaps the others will fess up but I ain't namin names...lol!!! DD

This thread has gone in a direction that can conjure up some mighty scarry images!!!! lmao!!! DD

Well......ahem......it's a documented fact that there are several board members who confess to innoculating jars in the nude so I guess nude with a O2 cylinder isn't that big a reach.....lmao!!!!

.........on one hell of a ride!!!!! What a year ya'll!!! As I was reading some recent posts last nite, I thought back to October 2009 when I became a member of clusterbusters........Ron and I joined within a few hours of each other on the 27th.........the next day he put up his epic thread, "If this helps just one sufferer", which resulted in some PM's back and forth (the subject line of one of the first was "Fears and Paranoia" so ya'll can guess what that one was about...lol!! ) ......we discovered that we were both a couple of old hippys, he became my hero, and a great friendship began!! That first 4 or 5 weeks, it seemed like it was just CArl (damn, I miss seein him on the board) , Ron, and myself here most of the time.......but Ron and I were both here A LOT!!! LOL!!! Bein an retired old fart does have some privileges!!! Then in December, Shaggy, Mad6string, and our dear Tingeling came on board and the floodgate opened!!!! It's amazing how much our "active" community has grown in just over a year!! I feel so blessed to be a part of this group....to have had the opportunity to meet some of ya'll in person at the meet n greets, at the conference, and during my trip to Ron and Bonkers, and to have witnessed some of the amazing transformations in folks lives, both in person and in the threads on this forum. It's been a very good year ya'll and I am soooo looking forward to seeing what the New Year brings!!! As our good friend Dr J says, "Onward"!!! Wishing everyone a very PF and Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year!!! Dallas Denny

This says it all Siv!! BTW, it ain't nice to make an old man cry this early in the damned mornin! Dallas Denny

Glad we got that cleared up....I was feelin old too T!! Lol! Jilly, there's a thread on clusterheadache.com with a printable "letter to employers and colleagues"     http://www.ouch-us.org/chgeneral/colleagueletter.htm     most of em still won't totally get it, but sadly, I'm afraid that's a reality of CH!! I'll second the new doc for O2 or gettin my own welding O2 set up for sure!! O2 completely changed the way CH affected my life!! Lots of folks have been successfully using welding O2 for a long time without any ill side effects and it's real cheap compared to medical O2 and Trex!! The age of the "alt meds" would make them questionable in my mind.... Welcome to the community Jilly!  Sending PF thoughts and wishes your way. Dallas Denny

I'll second that notion Dan!! Good on ya CH Father and Welcome to the community!! Dallas Denny

Damn Ron!!!! Left the squirrel cage open again didn't ya buddy?? lmao!!!! DD

Wishing all a Happy and PF Thanksgiving!! Dallas Denny

My sentiments exactly Lee Ann!!!.....and I'll second thebb as well.....You ROCK girl!!!! Dallas Denny
