Thought about yur question.  Mostly, I either rub my fingers at my temple (affected side) or rub the KNOT in my neck/shoulder area..............The other hurting areas I put a cold or hot rag on.  I can recall only rubbing my temple/eye or neck wit the fingies.

Dave says  " MOSTY MY EYEBALL... to explain it, a fucken dagger is in the center of the eyeball... then if you can when you think the pain can't get any worse, then they fucken twist the dagger while its in there..."  quote unquote  by Dave the man of very few clean words  with love from his secretary and typist Reebananaorangebod...
 
PS then he said some stuff about his hair standing up on end like a dog bein rubbed the wrong way but i thought you guys would have a party with that statement so i left it out of his quote....

Well mine switches from one eye to the other at times.
I'm chronic, so the right eye has it most of the year then the left.  Every time, the pain is the worse right in the center of the back of my eye on either side.

Easy answer Jonny... a nailgun firing on full auto right through my right eye. (although I have had 2 episodes that were on the left eye in the past 13 years). I'm still amazed that I can still see out of that eye after all the pressure I've put on it....

WT, I had one start in my left eye, (that was always the spot ) then it moved to my right eye and I got hit hard. It's been the right ever since. I guess the left got wore out.
 
Worst pain is always behind the eye.

Behind my right eye.  My fingers usually do a 3-point stance at the bottom inner and outer corners and the top outer corner.  It starts out like someone is trying to pull my eye out from the inside and then the icepick.

Now thats fucking funny dude, I guess after 23 yrs the left eye gave up on me......LOL
 
I agree the eye....oh man!!..........shoot me.
 
I feel lucky though, I can kill every HA while im awake (Every single one) its the wake ups that get me.
 
For some strange reason im thinking this time thing has alot to do with it, I was on the med combo im on 10 years ago and I was being hit alot more than I am now (Alot more)
 
On top of that I dont get hit nearly half as much as I use to.
 
What up with that?
 
Ive been half doseing the last couple weeks and the MF'er come screamin back with a vengence......who knows what this prick will do next.

Hey Jonny!  Sorry you're having a bad time of it lately!
 
You said the worst pain would be wear I rub, but I'll rub both the back of my neck (cause it feels like it's all coming from there) and around my eye (sinuses).  Now when I put the ice pack, it's always all along my left side, or right over my left eye.  Guess I'm wierd.  My eye burns all day long every day...so maybe that's why I don't get as much pain there?  who knows....I hate this thing!  God...have I answered the question?  LOL

I've never really thought I could see it but there have been times when it hurts so bad it seems like I can hear it...like some kind of grinding noise going on inside my head.

There is no question about it it is the eye and temple area that is where the pain is the greatest.  Mine are so bad that my teeth and jaw hurt when it hits the apex of and attackk.

Well jonny -- it's definately the right eye for me.  I have had two occassions in the last 28 years when it changed sides.  The left was a walk in the park compared to the right.

definately eye pain for Mike too, Jonny.  His cheek, jaw, and nose all get involved as the pain ramps up, but it originates in the eye for sure.
 
It varies sides, cycle to cycle, and I remember one particularly horrific night that it switched sides, mid-attack.  That's only happened once though, at the peak of this last cycle.  I hope that never happens again -  poor guy.  Sad

Most intense = behind right eye/right temple (Mr. Happy's description is pretty acurate).  Although the pain start in my neck - I alternate punching my neck and wanting to rip out my eyeball to relieve the pain...

jonny - it's Warren's left eye for sure - he pushes the heel of his hand against his eye while he rocks.  Usually the pupil of that eye is very constricted too.

For Dean, it's behind his left eye.  And YES!  I can see it.  His eye becomes so bloodshot red that I wait for blood to join the tears streaming down his face (out of his left eye only) and the left nostril....it just streams down his face like a faucet.  By the time the pain reaches that stage, he can't stay still long enough to observe, but I will look for the pupil constriction and droopy eyelid if the beast returns while I am with him.

You sound like a great supporter, Deansgirl.  I do that cluster-check too, when Mike comes home.  I check his eye.  It's what we do, right?  Smiley
 
And, you're absolutely right - we supporters CAN see the pain.  Maybe you sufferers can't but we sure can.  Your face does change, especially your eyes.  It's just a look that's indescribable.  But, yep, we can see it.  Sometimes even before you can feel the pain.

Left Eye for me.  Can't tell if there is pain anywhere else, too busy dealin' with the daggers being pushed, pulled, and twisted.

Thats what im talking about Joe, For me there is no pain but the eye pain. If there was other pain I dont know it cause of the twisting and turning of the dagger in that eye.
 
You win Joe, I like your post the best....LMMFAO ;D

Of All The Unbearable Pain-
« Reply #70 on: Mar 10th, 2003, 7:54pm »
Quote Quote Modify Modify

the most unbearable is just behind the right eye. I did electrical work for a few years. The first reaction to touching a live wire is to get away from it. The pain is somewhat like that, with the wire piercing the eye. The problem is that you cannot get away from it, and you cannot turn the current off.

Dave has told me that for him it's the temple first then the eye (left side) that it's like someone putting  a red hot poker in the temple running it right out the eye.  Embarassed

Right Eye.. no eye pain = no CH
 
Feels like my eye is imploding and will burst at any moment.. eye becomes so red..there is practically no white.. good for halloween costume....  
 
I also get pain in my right nostril..jaw..essentially from my eye to the back of my neck... stabs... and pressure..
 
that's my story...

I'm new here!
 
This is my first "known" CH and it is definately the right eye.
 
I have also experienced living with another CH sufferer (my dad) and it also affects him in his eye.
 
(P.S. it's been reassuring to know that there are other people out there who understand what it's like - Unbearable!!)

Once it ramps up to a 10, it's equally right eye, right forehead, right temple and right upper teeth.  BIG time flood from right eye and nostril.
