Just can't bear the sight of food when in cycle . Plus I vomit like no tomorrow when under attack. I lose so much weight when I'm in cycle then take months trying to put it back on again

I try my best sue

Sue!!!! Predictive text lol

The man's mind is a clever thing Lol

You girls just don't understand how bad Man Flu really is !!!!!!

Sorry to hear you both not well , but you look after your man Bosco ,Just remember he has man flu it's a lot worse than the flu women can get

At least you can spell akronyms Bosco

I have been called father Christmas on this forum so let give it a try . I can give the reindeer a rest

That's it I'm gonna sit in a boiling hot bath tub stick my head out the window hold the shower head over my head stick 2 ice cubes to the roof of my mouth and tape a bag a frozen pea to the side of my head whilst sucking on my o2

Sorry to hear cycle on it's way

May try a hot soak plus o2 see if it will abort even quicker

A good think to get rid of shadows is to take ginger . 1100mg 2 capsules everyday can by off Amazon

Not tried that yet . Instead of hot soak does a hot shower work ?

Thanks Jono a lot more in depth

Sometime if your lucky you can abort the attack with the energy drink or strong black coffee without having to hit the o2 . I think in the US the best energy drink is the 5hour energy shot . Sorry don't know the brand we don't get it over here in UK

I've never taken my portable o2 on a flight , but when I do fly I always take a samitriptan injection with me in my hand luggage, plus a hand full in my suitcase

Sorry can't help with cost or insurance side of things as I'm in UK and get it free on BHS over here thank God, as for what to do with it . You hit it straight away as soon as you feel attack coming on . You need a non rebreathable mask you need air flow to be minimum 15L/PM exhale all the air in your lungs then inhale as fast as you can some people hyper-ventilate to abort an attack some people dont, you will learn as you go along . Once you have managed to abort the attack stay on the o2 for an extra 10 to 15 mins to prevent the attack from returning . A good thing to do is have some energy drinks close by so when you feel an attack starting shoot the energy drink down as you heading to your o2 it helps . Don't ask my why but it does

I've always said I think it has something to do with head trauma,but I'm no doctor or neurologist so what do I know , and I guess some Cluster heads haven't had head trauma

Charles so your not on the o2 know then ?

Well sue know you come to mention it . Only joking .mine curve down the sides

Trouble with that sue is I bite my nails so I can't really tell

Got to be fair a lot of CCH say they prefer to know when they are gonna get the attacks instead of the unproductive side of ECH but I can't imagine getting hit every day . I do look forward to my CH free time

Yea not good bej . Probably thinner than skinny oops spiny

I gurn loads just before an attack the missus notices and always will say that she knows a good 15 mins b4 I get hit. I can't really afford to lose the weight as I'm stick thin as it is . I've never been above 154 pound . After my most recent cycle I dropped to 112 pounds.

Strange I lose so much weight when in cycle as I don't feel like eating plus I vomit really bad if I get hit with Kipp 9 or 10s , but I am really thirsty after an attack
