  1. Weird right? My post, posted 4 topics aswell. As per the d3 i believe its recommended to stay at Maintenance dose of 10,000 IU per day + the other goodies!
  2. Well im not sure what happen here but it seemed to have posted 4 times. Sorry Admins.
  3. Hey guys, This cycle has been real weird for me this year. Usually I get hit around Canada day June/July and i get fairly regular (same time) hits 1-3 a day. Ranging anywhere from 1-9 with a few 10s per cycle. This generally lasts about 2 months. This years my cycle started on a Hike in mid April and is still going on. Mostly I get 1-3 small annoying shadows per day. Been like this since April. Im now on Verapamil 240 per day as of about 3 Months ago. Prior to the Verapamil I was getting small night hits waking me up and small CH hits. Nothing above a 4. Since ive been on the Verapamil only shadows. In my previous cycles (the last 5-6 years) a shadow meant a HIT was coming. My hits were regular timing and my cycles only lasted 2 Months max. Im now almost on 5 months of weird shadows. Basicly what im asking here is: Has anybody had a odd cycle like this? longer but less intense? Could i possibly be going CCH?
  4. Hey guys, I just stumbled upon this forum about 2 months ago. Reading all I can and absorbing as much information as possible. My story is like most here. Im 27 now, CH started to hit when i was 20. Did not know what was going on. Doctors, doctors , and more doctors giving me stress medications and headache Meds. During one of my many hits in the middle of the night i would pace around and around untill i could sit down and start googling. That's when i found out about CH. I found a new doctor, who is very young. It took him about 15 minutes before he suggested that my headaches were not migraines or stress, but rather CH. He gave me verapamil, it helped for the last cycle but i belive it was just coming to a end on its own when started taking it. This year it has not helped. The 1st 6 years were like clock work. Around Canada i would get my 1st hit. Then about 1-2 per day, usually one during the day at the same time every day. Then one at night at roughly the same time. Lasting about 6-9 weeks. Shadows meant a hit was coming and i had about 5-10 minutes to get ready. This year is way different in so many ways. Beginning of April i started getting shadows, 4 months earlier then my previous 6 years. Weird to me? Now May 31st and still only shadows. Every day about 2-3 shadows lasting from 1-4 hours. Left side as always. With the left side nostril plugged for the duration of the shadow. I am extremely grateful to have stumbled upon this site, When feeling trapped from my CH i often read Threads on this form which seems to bring my moral up about having CH. I don't let CH stop me from doing anything. I've been getting by with it for 7 years now and somehow pull through each cycle. I would like to stop the Shadows this year. I am currently on a 4 month travel trip across Canada and into the US. So getting any kind of natural Meds would be good. I don t want to bust since im not in the comfort of my home. No out of province/country health plan, so doctors are a no go. My question is; Is this common to some people? Having a cycle of only shadows? Any natural remedies that seem to help people with shadows?
