This should go under a new heading for head trauma. Anew petson wld prolly never find this unless he sat andcread ALL the posts.

Echoes. Anything Echoes. Philadelphia nor radio program. Neurolinguistic programming its best. Love Monster drinks. Love echoes.

One thing i did that helped me? Was to switch from dosing thy meds in morning? Was to brk it up to 2ce/day. Then even smaller. Oddly enuff? Having blood pump thru my body? Made the chas pain worse, much worse. Of course along that line of thought is no bld pumping = no pain, but thats not conducive to life Lowered thy, spread it out, took Ca w thy to slow dwn affect. Cldnt not take it, tho... I stopped my chas for 10 yrs w thy t3 and lorazpm. Using ... sigh... "microdosing".... and now? New cgrp med? New chas rx? Is calcitonin gene receptor drug. Calcitonin is one of 14 hormones the thyroid gland makes. Calcitonin + thy t3 => drives calcium into bone. I used thy t3 and this drug company went after calcitonin. There is a component of chas that *IS* thyroid related. Where my thinking is going now? Is... Maybe reason bp shoots up so high? Is its like a form of thyroid storm? I am having more sympathy for u - cause i cld do some mediation of my chas w lowering my thy meds... most of u prolly cannot even do that. Listening to u guys describe the weight loss that u associate w chas? Makes me think abt thyroid storm. Sx of thy storm is low bp & fast high pulse. Makes it tricky to treat because if u slow the pulse u can lose the patient. Raise bp? And pulse will also go up and u can lose the patient. Sx of thyroid storm? Insomnia, irritability, grouchy. But thy storm, wld account for weight loss. I basically see the chas and thyroid interaction as being t4 to t3 conversion is stoped, pretty fast - that throws u into deep fast depr & hypothyroidism w craving to eat. If u go hyperthyroid? Itd be like too much, too fast t4 -> t3 conversion. Maybe? Maybe thy fluctuations?And maybe its a weird type of thyroid storm - w differing thyroid hormones. For me, its t4 -> t3 conversion is stopped and my thy gets.. flaky? I don't know, exactly. I'm throwing ideas out. Keep an eye on ur nails, as u wander along the thrilling roller coaster ride of chas.

And there, sports fans? Is the commonality of personality traits in chas ppls. Psychology in action. But those traits i see as coming from the chas. So, don't go putting the horse in front of the cart ;(

Shaun n cast iron - everyone's body is different. And all of us r working towards maintaining homeostasis. So - u have to look at a whole body picture, and not view 1 little thing as good or bad. The nails curving down on sides wld mean ur bodies r running a bit hyperthyroid - which isn't problematic? Unless u have severe *weight-loss* that worries u, or heart problems (rapid or irregular heartbeats for instance). Its part of the whole picture u'd want ur doc to look at. Just keep an eye on ur nails. That can change to straight actoss in a few days.... if ur thyroid changes. If so? Talk it over w ur doc.... (n let me kno What in looking for, w u guys? R changes in the nail tips associated w chas cycles. Cast iron? As far as callouses? Do u have eczema? Do u wear holes in ur socks? R the callouses yellowish in color? And u kno? A lot of us have callouses and it just means our feet bear the weight of our bodies. Some of us just get more callouses than others... because callouses r protective. Simple, u kno? But the answers to those ??s wld help..

Eell. Yes, i believe u still can look at them snd see the nail tip goes strsit across.. or else it curves down the sides. I sometimes bite mine too. But? ..... Shaun? I guess u r just extra special

Shaun, cast iron and list. Theres a quick way to check ur thyroid. Look at ur fingernails. I believe this would be more applicable to chronics.. but if ur body is hypothroid? Ur nail tips will tend to go straight across. If u r hyperthyroid? The nail ought to be curved down into the sudes of the tip. Wont matrer much how u file them. This dx is pretty true. The pre med books all turn back to the statement that the end result of successful thyroid supplementation is indicated by the effect it has on peripheral tissues. Short n sweet - if ur bodys hypothy? Nail tops straight across. If hyperthy? Nails will curve at tips. Changes show up in just a few dsys. Look now at ur nails - lemme me kno this may be helpful to chas w weight losses. Not a doc, cant dx or tx. Just a tip i was told abt by a doc. fyi? The man who devised the tsh test? stated it should never be used to quantify doseage of thy meds. He eschewed using tsh test for standardizing therapeutic dose amounts. He thot if.if. doc thot patient might have thy issues? Tsh test wld give evidence to doc his dx was on correct path. He believed strongly that the patient should be tx on basis of signs & sx, *NOT* by tsh test. Nurses study (long term) showed preference for higher dose than tsh indicated and nurses were allowed higher doses. There were no adverse issues w higher amounts used by nurses.

Melanin is color component. Melatonin is hormone in body and can be activated by light coming in thru eyes. Amount of melanin doesn't seem to matter re: chas. I dont think amount of light matters either. We all went a bit sideways w terminology. And there have been instances - nope dont have reference, do u?- Where epigenetics played a role in inherited eye color that did not conform to strict Mendelian genetic rules. Does anyone know of a person? I'll take one,... of golden colored eyes in combination w chas?

Yes, ty. Confirmed info as opposed to assumptions. U kno....? Thats a whole lotta b.s. wordage. And ppl get paid big $$$$$ for that?? Mmmm.

It's sx and dx of chas to analyze. is it just indicative of ur busy mind? OCD that gets turned on w chas? Why - how- i might think wld be more pertinent questions. Spread sheets. Aps in detail. Elists to analyze. Does it get us anywhere? Anyone else notice as ur chas recedes? So does the proclivity to engage in detail record keeping? I go away? And give myself a vaca from keeping track. U kno what? it works.

1. I wonder if this is fluctuations of thyroid. I used thy t3 for 10 yrs to halt the chas dead when they'd try to start up. And cgrp works off thyroid also. Curious? - Have u tried that? 2. Fluorescent lighting is problematic for many chas. Spiny & pink lensed glasses. Theyd give me a ha in a store. This is related, heavily, to the autoimmune fms info. 3. Mucous and pain, vomiting and choking on phlegm. This, i wld betcha dimes to dollars, is what was referenced abt ghycosphate(?) or roundup, and glycine. It sounds like IgE rxn that happens when immune cells cause atrack on abdominal area. So. R u celiac sensitive? Do u note commonality between eating breads? McDonald's hamburger buns and attacks? Because boy- i sure did? Id eat McDonald's h buns? And on wld come that allergic IgE vomit w phlegm and u choke on it.. and it keeps coming....? I thot i just had a rxn to just mcdonalds breads. But it'll pop up for me, sometimes, w other bread carb products. I feel that itchy tingling and I'll immediately spit out and not eat it. Thats why it makes sense to me the whole benedryl topic to tx a chas and in fact the whole syndrome deal... it aint just a headache. Exposure to roundup? Walk across a nice green lawn? Let dogs run in dog park w big green area? No pricker stickers? Prolly roundup exposure... proly IgE rxns coming down the line towards u.... and ur dogs. Esp at risk r breeds like goldens, genetically at risk just by being goldens. #4. Extreme cravings come n go? May be - IgE rxn? Or else its thyroid falling fast and body craving energy to keep it going? Tome to pay attention to cravings. When do they come in relation to - anything. Green lawns? Fast food? Sleep? Laundry detergent? Gottabtry to suss out what its reaction to. - to save urself. See?

I am postulating a theory here. What happens when cha hits? 1. Endocrine system tanks. 2. Blood sugar levels tank. 3. Thyroid tanks. 4. Blood Pressure escalates fast. 6. Pain goes up fast. For many of us? It happens at varying degrees of speed . So... u may notice the feelings of hunger or (suicidal) depression first. Thats ur thyroid signaling for help. For me? It happens as fast as flicking on the light switch. Sometimes i get the knife sharp flickers of head-grabbing pain first. It used to just be everything all at once for me. Its slowing waaaay down now. The weight loss? I would wonder if u r not swinging into more hyperthyroid times... does the insomnia kind of correlate thru w the weight loss? Times u dont want to eat? R those also times where sleep is more squewed also? If u were to actually go super hard hyperthyroid? That wld indicate severe food cravings - body compensates running so hot w demand for a LOT of extra food. Fat craving? Follows same line of thot. Protein + fat = carbs (how body makes carbs. Example of ketogenic diet). I can't explain the liquid cravings. Sometimes i want to guzzle a lot of water. Other times i don't. Why? Dunno... part of what helped me to try "slammin" a rb or monster? Is that at times? I wld guzzle, or slam, if u will, 4 cans of wildcherrypepsi. Same amt caffeine. Wonder if it's the bodys way of changing pH levels?? The odd way of breathing? Leaning forward and grunting out air? IT *IS* sx of odd blood pH levels and a way to manipulate ur blood pH levels towards normal. The theory of intaking a lot of water? That'd also change ur body's pH. So maybe blood pH enters into the equation - i wld give credence to that thought/theory. The body wants to maintain homeostasis and a lot of it's energy goes into keeping everything within certain acceptable limits. Eat and drink what u r craving. Ur body is trying to tell u, to help u.

To me? Juss defined how i experience it.. sigh ~~ he said he talks in tongues. LoL but I'm afraid i do also. Hyper & w strong urge to talk abt it & talkin in tongues LoL... but during chas- so, I'm a wee bit hard to take Thank you - to everyone here .

A very few uf u kno that ive been going thru some rough times - on top of these chas. I saw doc thursdsy, and theyd snuck in a pysch person as an 'intern'... I happened to explain being extremely hypothyroid and un.tx. Bs levels tank when asleep n last thing ur body does is shoot out adrenaline so u don't die. I used to awake as id be scratching to get thru the walls. Taking thy t3 at nite stopped it. Eventually t3 + armour got me going. Then i mentioned clusterbusters - and? Wallah! The intern *knew* abt chas!!! And the nurse had heard of microdosing!! U cldve knocked me over w a feather. Ive been in a fight to keep my home, the sheriff is a constitutional sheriff? And so he'd seal alll his arrests so he cld seize properties.... i was forced to sign a blank resttraining order.... w a solid leo background? Having these shaky, at best, court things against me? Was stressful.... i was bring forced out of a doctor.'s care.. i mean most any n all doctor's care.... to travel over 120.miles to see a doc... facing losing my home, and a sheriff who things he is - i kid u not- a king who runs soc services and everything... if u dont like it? He'll bend the law and arrest u -:indefinite stay in jail is 1 luxury he imposed. The judge retired when i started bitching abt ex parte communications. The pub def got jetked out. Then 3 days after my court? The sheriff put in his retirement notice (nov 2022). Pub def #2 - i found his obit online. He died of brn cancer 2020. He grew up mesa cnty where sheriff n his buddies grew up. Is my pub def #2 dead? Its like a bad lawyer joke - but rather off color. I dont know...., but everything else @ heres gotten very rotten. Jurys out on #2. Judge #2 seems like a rather nice passive female. Quiet, didnt answer my objection to blank r.o. and didnt answer when i told her I'd fired #2 and needed a lnew awyers advice. TY for clustetbusters. And TY for "microdosing"... as i said? Then met another nurse there suffered w chas also. It was a surprise that 2 ppl were undetstanding of chas. In a sea of ignorance? U find 2 knowledgeable then a 3rd who also suffers? It takes awhile to have it hit home. Thank you to everyone for the bits and peices, large and small, that u bring here? And that u take out into the world. Thank you.

Cld u contact a disneyworld employee now? And have them ask around to e.r.'s and friends and other ppl for u? I wld think that might be a jumping off point - to guide u some. Im sorry - im far far away in another galaxy best of luck-

All of a sudden, words r so teensy i can barely read anything. Taking me forever to rwad. Not good. Sorry... if i am right? Melatonin is a hormone. Its not just a color holder, or a bix that fills up w brown stuff (or less for blue eyed ppl) its a hormone within the body. And of course i cant find that one site that addressed melatonin. I will get back to u... Thrres peocebtitled meatonin or cancer... that melatonin starts out as swerotonin and converts to melatonin andcreverts back to serotonin.

You guys stay on me w this. The way to make sure u understand something? Is to teach it. Thats when n where u find out ur mistakes in thinking. I am amzed abt the permanence in pupil constriction, spiny. Thats... extreme! But excellent info. How many out there have this? And docs dont kno? Yesterday, they brot a specialist in w my nurse (told me she was interning and learning, a student still). She (finally!!!! Soneone!!!!) Understood my hypothyroidism caused such severe bld sugar level falls? My body'd shoot out adrenaline when i was sleeping to wake me as last ditch attempt so i wldnt die when asleep and bsl's ttanked. It was interpreted as nightmares, repressed psych trauma - NOT. Even w t4 and then on armour? Id awaken as i was up clawing my way thru the wall... elist? Someone said get n take smallest t3(thy) pill at nite before slp? I took 1/2 and slept like a baby. Slowly incorporated it into a.m. meds. Better that soecialist? Damn!! She also understood and explained chas to the whole f* medical group there! I hit the jackpot. Its so depressing when ur med teams like cement - u r crazy and lying abt crazy migraines. Went for my bld draw? And tran into a nurse w chas? She cried on my shoulder abt her chas, and how even her husband thot she was lying abt it i referred her here. She said shed had one 3 days running - i explained shadows to her.... even her husband! Talk abt betrayals... bad enuff ur doc gets u arrested - but family is just sad ppl to not have compassion...

Thanx spiny for green Thanx devonrex for blue green. And of course, thank you, shaun for blue, jon for BIG blue . I saw info abt blue eyes let in most light for melatonin and brown/hazel the least? Green in middle. It has to do w light coming into eyeball and reaching retinal rods & receptors - and that affects the melatonin, which affects circadian rythms. Newscaster w pink lenses? She had brown eyes. I did know one bigtime crook who had the world convinced he had green eyes. He did not. He had hazel eyes and wore contacts to make them green. He never took them out so all his records indicated green. I, we, need critiques of what we kno abt the cluster head ache syndrome. I thank y'all.

Spiny? U wore pink lensed glasses for migraines in the 70s (for all thru the 70s? 10 yrs straight?)....and u then after that? (When after that?) had a 10 year remission?... pls? What were, roughly, ur dates of pink glasses and ur dates of remission? Like roughly months and yeararspls? And thanx? Did u, by chance, use drugs during the 60s-70s. also? Hallucinogenics? If this is too personal we cld go private... just trying to get a better handle on the dates and firm things up a bit more. I also had a 10 year remission - if i am correct to see the headaches on a continuum? Thanx

Well, sweetie pie? I think u r the exception that proves the rule!!

I stopped drinking beer, basically, in h.s. Turned out? I have taste buds for wine (and abt 10 yrs ago? Vodka ~ go figure). In h.s. they used to blindfold me and have me taste test the different beers. I cld differentiate them precisely, even if they duplicated some. I mean? Why have different brands if ppl cant tell the differences? But i have never rly liked beer very much. Is that because my chas started when i was in jr high? Dunno... i just rly dont like the smell either.

No. I do not. I heard it here rptdly.. And, i also have hazel eyes Thanx i do appreciste the fact checking - its what i was looking for. i just found another chas'er within 50 miles of me - thats 6 women. 4 of us, within 20 miles. Statistically? Thats a lotta females, 1 had chiari malformation.

1. Amount of melanin in eye coloration is not suggestive of definitive color prediction pattern. (Blue, less melanin. Brown, most melanin. Hazel green grey etc... maybe even golden color? ) Doesn't predict one way or the other for chas determinate. 2. Vitamin n mineral protocol helps many. Vit D3 is important adjunct tx. Slamming Monster drinks at begin of a chas, often helpful. Lots of Lutein can help eye aura. 3. Theres an element of colored light that seems to help or hurt. Pink lenses & yellow-green lenses help... vs blue light hurts. 4. A. Seotonin and/or glutamate pathways involved in causation and sx, and can be mediatiion path for tx. B. Glyphosate (roundup) interaction w glycine cld be implicated as contributory mech for chas. C. Possible receptor problems with above listed mechanisms of action. 5. Histamine culprit for most w benedryl adjutant tx. Caffeine helps most chas. 5a. Mast cells - mast cell activation syndrome and/or mastocytosis. BAD triad tx for sx. 5b. Sinus involvement? 5c. WildChery Pepsi, Dr Pepper, Redbull, Monster, drinks often helpful (latter 2 have B vitamins). 6. O2 and I.V. are considered first line e.r. tx. O2 O2. O2. 7. Cluster head ache syndrome can be chronic, or come & go (episodic)... 8. Only dna issues that have come to light, so far? Is fetal nuchal crest abnormalities. Also some genes have been definitively i.d.'ed for migraine and areas on those genes are being studied for more refined indication of dna proof. Ita all alittle sketchy. But nothing real solid abt DNA & chas has been discovered yet. 9. Tendency for drugs to tx chas work for awhile, then stop being effective. Chas sx themselves may change over time. This calls for flexibility in future dosing and drug selection. 10. Feet in, or sitting in hot tub w head in cold helps. Sucking ice water thru straw. Suck ion ice cubes. Breath in air conditioning in car. 11. Often correct dx of chas may take years or even decades. 12. Microdosing. Imitrex, pain meds, hallucinogenic mushroms etc... microdosing seems counter intuitive? But if u do it? It can help. #1 - #3 are all related to.... eyes/vision. There r other correlations, too. Pain!, allergic component, Horner's syndrome, occipitals(?), hypothalamus, trigeminal nerve, endocrine system - hormones (bsl n thyroid tank), low back pain/injury, many rock or walk (may be running seizures) till chas gone, ditto hit head or bang head on objects, tearing of eye, sinus congestion, runny nose, red eye, Usually many long years of incorrect dx and odd meds to tx because med personnel don't understand.

Batch? Thank u ever so much for such A clear intelligent article. So then if someone Dumped roundup on soneones pillow or their favorite easy chair? Or on their einfoe screens? Would that activate the glyphosate interrupt the glycine And wldi it kill u by increasing the allergic inflammatory response response to where ur body became so allergic thst It changed iver ftom mcas to mastocytosis? Am i tracking You correctly on this? An EgG rxn when u ate then wld f ollow? Or eld u have EgG rxn to products w roundup ?

He had.. beers?? Oksy. I'm impressed, gotta be feeling better! Mo
