  1. This was a great heads up.. I'm in the land of fairytale so I order often and regularly I am somewhat of a horder when it comes to supplements. Yes mindful of expiration dates but not a denier of possible issues with delivery . The environment we once became familiar with is changing in deed. I'm excited about my greenhouse in which I have ready a multitude of plants that produce the needed vitamins (not as much as I need but better than noda).
  2. Nailed it...
  3. Hi Monica, Sorry you are having a hard time. I don't think there is much of a correlation between CH and bi-polar. Some studies have been done on the subject and it seems that a very low percentage of CH sufferers are afflicted with the disorder (around 6% or so). It seems that migraine has a higher association with bi-polar. Depression however is something that many with CH suffer from, myself included. Either way it couldn't hurt to talk to your doctor about the sort of feelings you are experiencing. ATB
  4. Wow well said jeeb!
  5. I don't think anyone should have to go this alone, a leg up and shoulders to stand on play such an enormous part in our survival. Truth be told,there has to be many that lack the support and or comfort of a caring supporter. I hope those that lack this have found the path to this site. My reason for that sentiment is because even with the very loving and supportive husband I have, it just wasn't quite enough to keep me fighting. Knowing and being amongst others like me, in the same pain, the same battle made a huge difference. I'm not 100% why honestly. I suppose it may just be seeing and learning what they have done, gone through and are willing to try that sorta slaps you in the face and makes you wake up to the fact that this is your life, you can either play dead of fight to live happily.. sorry for the book!
  6. Now this is a perfect example of seriousness gone all awry (nothing wrong with catching a smile every once in a while)
  7. This was the best thing I've read all day! Made me laugh out loud.. Pokémon animosity... uff who would've thought! The leaderboard is silly and I think most on here much know that you would be at the top of the silly thing.. Anyhoo thanks for the belly laugh!
  8. Hi Music, I don't think anyone pays much attention to the leader board or badges. If you go through the forum and look at the topics you will find something light hearted here and there but for the most part it is a seriously informative site.
  9. Is the website to view this project available yet?
  10. I'm not sure who your question is addressed to but I'll chime in and say yes. I think most of us have and it has no effect on ch..
  11. Probably not all that helpful or harmful. For myself, I most likely would not let anyone touch my head especially my temple on the CH side but that's not because I know it to be harmful it's just because I'm a weirdo like that
  12. This was a really good read and confirms why my neurologist has never commented on my emails regarding the D3. He responds to all questions regarding everything but supplements... Thank goodness for this site!
  13. Makes perfect sense that the ratio would drop with time. I myself am a female. I suppose I got lucky in diagnosis with my neuro. I think an important factor is (can they hear me)! Are they taking a through account of my symptoms? I was diagnosed with migraine for nearly 2 years by female general practitioners Remember you are your best advocate when it comes to your health! I got so fed up with my practioner that I fired her (she tried to tell me I had 2 types of headaches) and that was the end all. I then had an attack that made me believe I was gonna die. Dialed ER got routed to SF. Then got a smart neurologist that opened the conversation with "description of pain in your words" he instantly said oxygen and you have cluster. I suppose I got lucky..
  14. You could always order a home test kit to check your D levels. The calcium and other levels would need to be done by blood panel. But if you are just curious about where your at with the D level you can sign up to be part of the study (you have to sign up before you can order the kit). Here is the link. https://daction.grassrootshealth.net/tests/?_ga=2.133335374.1521229925.1648752367-772735290.1648752367
  15. Hi jbk, I am also an episodic and take extended release verapamil 480mg split in two doses (240 am 240 pm). I take it year-round although I have read that some only start it when knowing a cycle is coming. 120 mg is a very low dosage and I doubt it will help at that mg. I am unsure if that is true of rapid release as I have never taken it however it seems to be preferred over the extended release.
  16. Awesome post! Thank you!
  17. Something about this guy is just captivating...
  18. Hey Jon, Are you by chance trying to send a pm with an emoji in it other than one from the very limited amount of emojis on the site (like ones on your phone)? I only ask because even when commenting on the forum I get the same error if I try and use my own emoji. I also know CHfather gets that error alot when typing something a bit long.. Anyhow that's all I got on this one. Hopefully an admin will pop in and help ya out.
  19. Hey jeeb,what's nice as you get reminded if you set it up that way!
  20. Sorry for the broken up response. Trigger happy I suppose.
  21. I hope you are well and CH Free.
  22. An outlook calendar
  23. Hi Johhnyg. I record mine
  24. No need to be sad or pity me.. I have the best life ever.! No not an easy life but I wouldent change it for nothing... a hard knock life is more valuable now day's than most anything other! I value my struggle and embrace that it made me ME! I wouldn't be me without it! Cheers to you my friend.
  25. Hi buddy, I wouldent doubt that processed meat could contribute. When I was young (long time ago) we raised albino rabbits and my mom could cook them like no tomorrow! They were so good you could smell them a mile away from the drive. Never had rabbit since my ma passed. My step dad would make soup in a pot atop the wood burning fireplace when us kids would go and play all day in the snow was also the best ever! He was an iron worker so gone alot tying rebar but boy could he make something out of nothing! He taught me alot including how to wait at the docks for the fisherman to come in with fresh halibut, salmon, sea bass and crustaceans I owe so much to him! Poor dude had a vasectomy at 18 years old.. ended up with me.
