dehabel Posted Saturday at 07:20 PM Share Posted Saturday at 07:20 PM Okay do I have had a really long spell, which I thought was ending two weeks ago. It stops then I get pretty mild ones in the evening/middle if night. Then nothing for a day or two. The mild in middle of night. When I say mold, I mean I am not screaming. Sometimes I take a shot, sometimes I talk myself off the ledge. What the heck??? I am taking another round of steroids to see if they leave. Has this happened to anyone?

Bejeeber Posted Saturday at 10:15 PM Share Posted Saturday at 10:15 PM Cycles extending longer than anticipated seems common, and that would include versions where the attacks are milder and fewer/farther between in the extended weeks. There has also been a minor flurry of reports as of late of CH'ers ending a cycle, only to have it then start right back up again for them. Weird that that one has struck a cluster of clusterheads all in a row, but as I more carefully read your report, it sounds like this fortunately will not be the case for you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoscoPiko Posted yesterday at 01:54 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:54 AM Hi @dehabel, Sorry to hear of the extended cycle you're going through. Unfortunately it's not uncommon in the "clusterverse". Tons of variables could be the culprit for this happening. Not sure where you are located but here in CA it's high allergy season which can be a trigger of sorts. My last cycle that was extended from 4 to 6/7 months occured during a terrible fire that chocked out clean air for most California's. Im not sure what you're injecting when you say sometimes you take a shot but im assuming some sort of triptans? If that is the case you may want to research how to split the dose as triptans can also extend a cycle. You did not mention what you are doing to prevent cycles so I feel it necessary to mention the D3 regimen as well as busting which you can read about more on this site if it interests you. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dehabel Posted 22 hours ago Author Share Posted 22 hours ago Thank you for the response. I was doing the D3 regime but it was not doing anything for me so I got a little lax in taking all those vitamins. I take Benadryl at night and have done two rounds of steroids, the dexa one not prednisone. The dr put me on Indomethacin but it did nothing. This has been a rough one. I am afraid it is never going to end. Have you heard of another round of steroids knocking it out at this time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh man, Here I am on about week 9 of 12 and I have a tooth extraction next week. It would be a nightmare to extend or restart a new cycle. The cycle has been fairly tame after starting out way strong. It got way easier after some DMT aborts. I wonder if it had any effect?
