  1. I can't believe I had to give up my chocolate. lol ding dang headaches. Update since the last post. I had one pain free night since my last post. Did everything the same the next day but was hit with two daytime attacks and two zinger night time attacks. Still working on getting my oxygen but in the meantime I'm using other things from you guys and this site.
  2. Hey Dane, I don't want to speak out turn here or step on anyone's toes. However I use to pop BC powders like they were candy until I figured out a couple things. One being that my headaches would go away before the BC powder actually kicked in good and the second thing is that I believe ( for me at least ) that the BC were triggering more headaches. Since I have stop taking them my daytime attacks have dropped a lot. Sorry you have these things, they are no fun at all.
  3. You guys are awesome. ThatHurtsMyHead, my night time snack is dark chocolate...mmmmmm Usually a dark chocolate mounds bar or these cosmic brownies my wife gets for my stepdaughter and myself. So now I'm off limits to the goodie cabinet haha. Last night I slept with my head more elevated (almost in an upright position) and it seemed to help. I woke up once with a mild stinging in the back of my eye. So I got up as I usually do to go to the front porch and get some fresh air, but by the time I got out there and set for a hit, it went away. However the exhausted feeling was still there and went right back to sleep. I do have a question, Do you ever have a day were your neck is tight all day and when you move certain ways you can feel the knot, or feel like your neck is sticking? You think you are going to get a hit but you don't? I have some other question and experiments to ask/tell you. I hope to get time this evening to sit down and type more. oh, on a side note the only thing that Melatonin made go to sleep was my lil buddy. Just sayin.
  4. Most of my hits are in the evening after work. Usually around 5 p.m. They kick in. Most of the time they are a 4 or 5 on a scale of 1-10. But you can bet that at 12:00 midnight I will wake up with a 7-8, be up for hour with it then I will be so tired I could fall asleep right where I'm at. Go back to sleep and be up again with in an hour with another. So trying to get my sleep right is not working to well. I gave up my favorite night time snack to see if it helped and it did somewhat, but three attacks a day are normal for me. I am working now on getting an oxygen set up. Most of my daily and evening attacks usually only last 20 - 45 min but the ones I get at night after I have gone to sleep usually last 45 min to the dot. I want to try the busting, but am having trouble finding the MM. Last Thursday and Friday I was pain free, first time in 5 months, however Saturday was a beast and the after shocks have continued for the past week. Took 3 days for me to feel like a person again.
  5. Thank you Sir for your response. Well I have been trying some natural things out such as diet, sleep and trying to watch stress. With the risk of sounding foolish, I don't take any medicines because I do not want to deal with side effects. I watched my mother pop pills for most of my life and they did nothing for her but make her sick. I am looking into the D3. I believe some of those vitamins I take already. I don't have oxygen.
  6. Hello everyone, I am new to the site. I have had these headaches for about 10 years but in the past 4 years they have gotten worse. I was told by my doctor that I was considered to be in the chronic category. I am glad I found this site. There is a lot of useful information. Thank you guys for sharing your stories and remedies. Maybe at some point I can slow these things down enough to at least get a few nights of full sleep.
