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

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

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. -
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.

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.....

Welcome to the family. May your journey be awesome.

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.

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

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

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

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
xBoss replied to michq's topic in General Board
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. -
If my house was not a house from 1940 and built like a tank I would have holes in the walls by now Hang in there girl!

Is your pain on the same side that you hold a phone?
xBoss replied to xBoss's topic in General Board
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. -
I was curious because I am a left hander and I hold the phone to my left side and that is where I get the pain. My clusters also started around the time of cell phones back in 1998. I can also feel the EMF coming from cell phones and they make my face and hands buzz if I am on a long call. I know clusters have existed before cell phne usage but I wonder if they are able to help trigger them.

I reached new tens last year and had to slide my scale. Most of them used to be 20-60 minutes but they have gone three hours+ in recent times. You def. wonder if it will ever end past the three hour mark. The good news is that busting is working. Hang in there!
-
Not all CH's are max pain kip 10's. This last cycle I am working out only had a few horrible ones, the rest were more like level 8's GL! And hang in there.

Hoping it was a horrible slapback. I took some MM yesterday and got hit about 4 hours after it wore off. Fingers crossed for tonight. They all happen from 11PM to 6AM. How you doing?
-
Hey tx BOF. I'm trying, broke my time record again last night with a five hour run.
-
Awesome, tx guys. I am trying to get this going ASAP. Been getting crushed at night lately. Had a new record last night. I never had extra long hits. Anywhere from 30 mins to 2 hours is the norm but last night was 4 hours with the first 3 being bad then it dropped down a peg
