2 weeks pain free!

I am chronic and have not had a med free pain free existance in over 6 years of any length of time.  I quit taking my meds 2 weeks ago and have been pain free since!  I am so happy and grateful to God!  The downside is I learned of a pain very closely related to ch in level of intensity.  I had a gallbladder attack yesterday and found out I have gall stones.  They want me to try to control it by diet.  Yeah right.  That is not going to be easy.  I thought I was going to die from the pain.  I have only felt that way about clusters.  Prayer is the only thing holding me together right now!

Great Karla! Thats wonderful. Sorry about the gallstones. I have nEver expereInced anything as bad as CHs! For instance ,whne I broke my collar bone, and I mean I exploded it, it was nothing compared to CHS. So gall stones must be bad! Get better soon!

Seriously... I hear the gallstones are some bad, bad pain. But at least it's a pain you can treat, sort of. My mom had em and they gave her dilaudid's. Shocked

Karla, I am SO SO happy for you!!! Cheesy  I'm keeping everything crossed that it stays this way for good!  Oh, and about the gallbladder, I had to have mine removed, because it blew up to the size of a big grapefruit.  The pain was HORRIBLE!  It felt like both my lungs had collapsed and I couldn't breathe.  I understand your pain, believe me!  Is it possible to elect to have it removed?  I'm not sure how that all goes.  Anyhow, enjoy your PF time!
