VA, Take this article to your doc: http://www.docstoc.com/docs/62904898/US-Cluster-Headache-Oxygen-Survey-Early-View-Online-Publication-HEADACHE Bob

Keep in mind that this therapy is generally only prescribed for CCH. Sam, before embarking on this therapy, I encourage you to check out this thread on CH.com: http://www.clusterheadaches.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1228226896/316#316 It's 13 pages long, but worth the read for anyone. Bob

Are you talking about painless hits? Check out the attached article Bob Clusters_without_Pain.pdf

Good to see you back Bob

Hang in there Sam! Where there's a will, there's a way. Maybe give the taurine supplement a try in th interum? I also urge you to reread Les' posts. You want to make sure that you are following his instructions as closely as possible. Bob

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEE ANN!!!!! Now, get Dan to take you out tonight.Â

I'm glad you are getting oxygen. It's a good start. And I know what it's like to not be able to have a life due to this disease. Everyone's different. Maybe you don't get trigged by any other booze than beer. If I'm wrong, then I apologize for coming down so hard. Good Evening Bob

TVA, Sorry if you feel like I am raining on your parade, but I take this disease very seriously. You seem to be both an intelligent and talented person. So what am I missing here? I may have been born at night, but it certainly wasn't last night. Party once a year? Come on! The people on this board will go through hell and high water to help out other CHers. But only if you are serious and willing to educate yourself about what you are up against. I hate to be so blunt, but if you are not willing to take those steps, then please don't waste our time. Bob

Are you kidding me???!!! You say you can't afford oxygen, yet you can afford Jager bombs and herb -- which BTW, sounds like you are trying to trigger CH!!!!! >

Happy Birthday Nat! I hope you and your hubby have a wonderful, pain free day!!

TVA, There is documented evidence of your supposition; see attachment. Sex_and_CH.pdf

Wow! Great find Ben mate!!! Isn't it nice to see some of our suppositions validated? Bob

Great to hear from you Phil. Wishing you success mate! Bobb

Gotcha Lynn! I am a bit more traditional: Grey Goose, clean but very dry as in wave the vermouth over the glass, shaken and served with a twist of lemon. 8-)

I am one who has experienced this. When I was getting hit regularly, it was usually in the evenings after getting home from work. My wife even thought that maybe she was causing my CH. My theory is that she may not have been so far from the truth. I propose that there are different types of stress. The stress that some have at work is different from the stress faced at home. At work, one is usually working at a specific goal or goals. At home, the stress can come from many different directions: relationships with the wife and kids and financial problems, to name a few. Although most have long term goals (problem solving), the stress at home can be something that one has to deal with on an ongoing basis. Just my two centavos, Bob

We've got snow on the ground here in south Atlanta - came down mostly yesterday. They say that the last time it snowed enough to accumulate in Atlanta on Christmas was 1882! So this is the snowfall of the century!
