Hi Spiny, Yes the Ivermectin is in my opinion what started to pull him out of it. Most doctors here in CA will not prescribe it. We got it from a friend that had Covid and he got it from Americas Frontline Doctors.

I'm sure he will pull through it's just that having a baby in the house for that long is not something I'm used to

I've been feeding him like tmro exists not he puts a bit down but not enough.. I may be old in praying for my husband but I am unsure what else to do?

Well hell I guess the man flu is worse... I don't really think so but my poor husband is 11 days in with minor progress we started him on the ivermectin 4 days qgo so I'm hopeful that will help. I'm not 100% yet but he is much better. He wakes up with headaches every day I sympathize as head pain I know. He hasent been able to go back to the office as of yet but is getting better this has been no fun..

Hi Mr. Jaques, A lot of people with CH get what is referred to on here as shadows (mild but bothersome pain/headache) prior to an onset and some like myself shadow on a daily basis. Also is the headache on the same side that you had your last CH? It's hard to say if your remission is ending or if you just have some odd headache. Just incase you are going back in you might want to consider loading up on the D3 and co-factors if you do not take them on a normal basis you can find the loading instructions and list of supplements by poking around this forum. When you were diagnosed, did your PCP put you on any preventative meds or have you just been lucky and had the CH take a hike for four years? I hope you just have a strange headache!

I am and have been taking all of these since my first talk with you so I should be able to kick this quick. Thank you Peter!!

LOL 100% Sue! Fixed it (not spiny)

Don't worry Jon with this lovley sickness there seems to be no upset tummy just zombie body

Your 2 funny Shaun! I tell ya I'm getting an idea with all the moaning from my husband The problem is that I got it one day ahead of him so in his mind I have to be feeling better than him because of that one day jump.... the words "honey will you" are starting to sound like nails on a chalkboard!! Thank goodness we don't have a bell in the house

Lol ... I'll smack him and say "that's from spiny" (kidding) I have him on board as his man flu is so bad he is willing to take whatever is suggested...and how nice of your sons neighbors!

Thanks spiny I do take all of the above daily but I've only been taking 1,000 a day of the C so I'll up that. My husband is on again off again with the supplements and is somewhat hard headed...

Boy you nailed it with that comment! Lol!!

I'm sorry but I need sleep.. thank you to the responders

Uff we are healthy and have no comobitities so I am sure we will be ok it just sucks!!

Thanks Sue we are in bad way but his fever is down now and we are pushing through

So my husband and I are both down with the flu/Covid. My question is if I take 10,000 IU a day with an occasional sublingual boost once a week of about 15/20,000 IU should I increase a bit knowing the flu depletes the D? I was sick not 2 long ago so I boosted a bit then 2 but this sickness is so bad that I could hardly walk yesterday as my entire body hurt including my joints. As for my husband he has been in bed all day with a 102 fever. We both take zinc and quercetin and I gave him a 50,000 IU D3 as he has not been taking the D. I had what most people would consider a bad headache and fever yesterday but it has subsided the worst of this seems to be bad body ache .. any info on if I should increase even more would be appreciated!

Hi Sue, I get a good amount of riding in when out of cycle about 3 days a week. When in cycle not so much. It is a good therapy..

I deserved that one LOL...

My goodness am I so far behind the urban dictionary and the use of acronyms that I can't understand much anymore.. jeesh I'm old...

I have this fear and haven't flown since CH. I received some pretty cool info when I posted about it (flying). Here is a quick overview of the info I received: 1. Make sure you have abortive meds in your carry on (imatrex injections, Sumatriptan tablets, nasal spray abortive in hand if you don't inject. 2. Have caffeine tablets at the ready and or 5 hour energy, red bull or a monster if the hostist can't serve black strong coffee (most air line coffee is weak) 3. Try and fly when out of cycle if possible 4. Make arrangements for O2 at the destination you will be going to. 5. Take an abortive prior to boarding 6. Cross your heart and don't hope to die 7. Make sure to tell all of us cluster heads how you fare. Ok ok I hope none but the best for you even if I sound like a joker. I have to go to a wedding here soon and um well I'm terrified as it's when I will be in cycle. I'm not going to fly but the terrain (elevation) terrifies me. Here's to your success!!

I look back often to the first day I felt the pain from CH. I had no clue as to what was going on. I remember the severe pain pulsating in my rt temple shocking me over and over again, going pale and sweating because of the new level of pain I had never experienced before. I remember the phone calls to the ER, the doctors, the shite show in its entirety. I'm still scared but nothing like what I was. I've turned or have tried to turn my experience with this mess into something to grow from (not sure I've grown a darn bit) but I know I move through each day a bit better than the one prior. The anxt not as bad, the fear not as bitter the continuation of remembering " I can't stop this but it will stop" has been so important to my mental health. Being lost without a clue is so hard. Having folks familiar with your own experience priceless! I suppose to wrap this rant up I should say that I don't believe any one medication or supplement regimen will work forever it is more of what @jon019 mentioned in the way that CH is ever evolving and we must evolve with it in new methods to fight this battle.. rant over..

Well said Jon.

This is something to hope for Jon. The other side of your post that seems scary is the erratic part. I like knowing when I'm going to hell for a stent (don't know exactly why) maybe it's because I'm a bit OCD in that way or maybe it's because I can mentally prepare? I've heard so much about aging out and I'm unsure if I can trust that (not that you are inferring as much. I don't want to give myself false hope as I am somewhat new to CH and received a diagnosis fairly quick with comparison to most (I was a tyrant thinking I would surely die from the hits). I am 42 and started having CH at 38 so as much as I would love to believe that maybe in my 50es I might go into remission I don't want to set myself up if that makes any sense? Anyhow I have been blessed by finding this site and all the amazing people on her so I take that as a win!

Sorry Spiny! Thank you for responding in such depth though!!

Wow! That's amazing... Do you recall if you were doing anything diffrent during that break? Even if you don’t that's just out right amazing but on the other hand I assume you were devastated by the return.. I suppose if I take anything away from this it would be that miracle breaks for suffering folks can happen and to be very skeptical about being cured and or about the shite show being over. Thanks for sharing this tid bit about yourself.
