projectfluff

I just wanted to introduce myself. I found this site through a swedish lady's video on youtube. Ill go by project fluff (my youtube name) alittle about me and clusters:(long boring story alert) I'm still not even sure if I have cluster headaches. An ER docter told me I did a long time ago and gave me tramadol for them. I ate the tramadol like skittles and for the most part the clusters went away. but they had plagued me for a month already so maybe they went away on their own. they stayed away for a couple of years only to return last spring. Luckily i had a job that i could walk off and sit in the basement and punch my head/take illicit narcotics to ATTEMPT to combat the headaches. they only helped me cope with stress of getting multiple debilitating headaches a day, not so much the headaches themselves. Untill yesterday I thought it was just sinus issues causing the cluster headaches. Then i saw a video on worldstarhiphop.com of a cluster attack and remembered punching my head and screaming and all around hulking smashing shit the same way untill i either acquired some major pain killers or they went away on their own. (usually the headaches went away while i was going to get them but i deffinately felt better heading towards a solution then just bruce leeing the hell out mirrors and cereal bowls and walls at my house. so here I am. Worried the headaches will strike this spring and bring my already sensitive living/financial situation to a...clusterf#ck? Things that have worked: Tramadol: Has ssri and snri properties which i believe is what ended the headaches the first time not the opioid action. Illicit opiates: not effective for the headaches typically but damn they provide a welcome reward for after an attack (advise against these actuelly) Afrin: seemed to help most of the time I think my attacks are triggered by sinus issues or allergies. Afrin however is addictive and cause your sinuses to close up if you use it to many days in a row. Triggers: spring (the season) smoking cigarettes thats all i know of thank you
