[Did COVID vaccine trigger CH cycle?]

I was getting hit just before the shot. Now I'm stuck in an unbustable state for the first time but the odds were against me. Probably not tied together but you never know.

[Cure For Cluster Camping Trip!!!]

Nice, what is that Virginia?

[The beast is back]

Hey all,

 

It's been pretty good for the last few years but I have a cycle trying to ramp up. Last night I got to about a level 6 of a full blown attack. Dosing as soon as this tea cools off.

I used my wifes albuterol inhaler a few times last week because I was smoking some cruddy weed. I wonder if the albuterol triggered this mess?

At any rate, time to slay this beast! GL warriors!

 

[Maybe microdosing isn't as great as one would hope....]

I tried to microdose. It just didn't work for me. I prefer the megadose! :p

 

[Has anyone completely stopped their cycles?]

I dose all the time (about 15 times a year) and besides a dentist trip triggering I have skipped three solid years of cycles and counting. 

[just wanted to say hello again after 18 months pain free *laugh cry*]

I have six cats and magic on my side! Keep up the good fight my friends!

[Happy Solstice ya'll!]

I got married on 12/21

[Cluster Headache Tinnitis after Covid]

Tinnitus club member here. I feel like it got worse from busting but maybe worse from CH. No rona yet... 

[I'm not alone?]

Keep tabs on those randoms. There was a trigger that made them happen. If you can ID the triggers you can avoid the random CH and then get to work on the episodes.

Excellent short video Tony!!!! I identified with it directly too.

I love that it is short and therefore more people will actually watch it!! 

When it showed her on oxygen with tears coming down her left eye my left eye dropped a tear!

[A short story about cluster "suicide" headaches]

Ah man that video hit home with the up all night CH after falling asleep bit. That one nearly crushed me.

[Clusters making me restless, angry and causing problems with family.]

Hang in there brother. 

[I am new here]

Hey Marlon. Welcome! I'm 49 and mine started when I was 27 and I also thought they were migraines or something since prior to that I never knew what a headache was except for maybe a hangover. Anyway, once per three years is not too bad! I'm once a year and this place has had me in remission for three years now! Hang in there and read up all the good info. You are in good company.

I love it when a plan comes together! TY!

So glad the research is back on after a 50 years ban or whatever it was.

[Exploding head syndrome]

The only pattern I can think of is that it tends to happen more often when I am more in need of sleep or more tired I guess. Yeah, lately it makes me feel like the doorbell was ringing. Such a weird thing. Us clusterheads def. have some quirky issues so it's good to try and find correlations. My spectrum of nero type issues is CH, EHS, panic attacks, cold seizures, ringing in the ears, mild tremors in the hands.....

[My first share - My experience]

Welcome to the family. May your journey be awesome.

[Exploding head syndrome]

I get them. I cannot stand the instant jerk wake up with the feeling that I was not breathing. It always seems like it was loud but loud in a weird different way from normal loud. Hard to describe.

[Waiting on my 2nd cycle]

Year 23 here but life is better now. GL on your journey NRay, this is the best place to be!

[Fall is coming]

Yep, the fall is my time of year as well. Already been working on it.

[New Member -20 years of this- Pittsburgh]

Year 23 here. You are in good hands! Welcome to the bust club.

[IMPORTANT signs along the way]

I used to build websites for a living. It was too much screen time so I had to mostly retire. I wear high grade UV protected prescription sunglasses all day every day (see my avatar!). It seems to help with the light pain and discomfort.

My neck and shoulders are always messed up even though I beat the beast with busting. The TMJ does not help the situation.

I find certain sitting postures can be a trigger for me. Mostly a position like sitting up in bed watching tv or the couch can do it.

Side sleeper here, on my back I get anxiety from the gravity pulling on my lungs and the belly is a no go for comfort.

[Doctor says I have cluster headaches, I'm not quite sure]

It's going to take some more time and data to know for sure. Cluster headaches can vary in pain from not too bad to horrible. People in major pain can get hot and break into a sweat but not maintain a fever. I drip in sweat sometimes. Study a list of the major symptoms and keep tabs on it, in the case of cluster headaches you will know more than your doctor. All they can really do is listen to your words and make a diagnosis.

No. And non-ionizing radiation doesn't... ugh. No.

Doesn't what?

 

I'm not talking about radiation that causes cancer. It's a 100% fact that there is a huge field around cell phones. The brain is electrical, this is the same priciple as gammacore.
