Sleep is good!!!!
 
Your body is getting conditioned to certain times......makes sense since the hypothingamajig Wink controls the circadian clock/rhythm.
 
Don't be surprised if you wake up at exactly the same time of your typical attacks but nothing occurs. Thisis ver common.
 
hang in there brother!

6/25/05
 
I hope that I am not really bothering anyone by posting my daily history up here, but I am just tryin to make any sense of it myself, and I am going to copy it to take to my Nero Dr this week, I just hope that maybe someone may be able to relate and It might help someone else.
 
Well lets start off with yesterday 6/24.  
 
After the bad night, the hits just kept coming all day, I got a bad one at about 1pm, I took half the 100mg TREX pill, about 45min, things got back to normal .  
 
Then as I was driving home about 4:45pm, here comes the best again, I took another half 100mg TREXpill, and about 5:30 the time I got home the HA was gone again.
I got in the door and I could not stay awake any longer, I just decided to go to bed after the allnighter the night before. So I fell alseep and awoke about 7:30pm feeling better.
 
I took the Melatonin (9mg) and Benedryl (50mg), about 1am I awoke again with the BEAST kicking me hard in the head, I took a 100mg TREX tablet, I did not have any cut, and when the BEAST is kicking I do not think its a good time to pick up a knife. So after the usual 90 minute battle in the bathroom, I was spent and ready for bed, I slept till 10am this morning.
 
I ran some errands and came home about 12:30pm and at 1pm here comes the BEAST knocking on my head again, So I took another half 100mg TREX tablet, and its now 2pm (about 60 minutes later) and the BEAST is sleeping again. thank God for the TREX.  
 
I just do not remember the BEAST ever hitting this hard before, but its been almost 2yrs sice my last cycle. When he finaaly goes away, my head feels like a kickball and my sense of smell is like I can smell everything ??? WEIRD..??  
 
The Good news is that I do have my TREX injectables, I only have 3 / 2packs, but I went today and got some Diabetic syringe's to split up the TREX injectors into 2mg shots.
 
Its using DJ's trick but I just could not hold the injector vile and use a Q-tip, while I had an attack coming.  
Now I can just give myself a regular shot.  
 
Like I said before I just hope this information might help someone out there. I have found plenty of help here and I just want to return the favor in anyway that I can.
 
PF days to ALL !!!!

6/27/05
 
Well all in all it was a pretty good weekend. I had a pretty good day on Sunday 6/26/05. I did not get the usual visit at the 1am time as usual; maybe the cycle is changing up a little. I did take the Melatonin (9mg) and Benedryl (50mg), got a hot shower and got to bed by 10pm, seems like the earlier I take the meds and the shower, then get to bed the BEAST has less a chance of getting me at night. So a good night always makes a good day.
 
During the day on Sunday I had a couple of really small hits, one at about 8am and one at about 8pm, for each attack I just took half of a 100mg TREX pill at the moment I felt and tinge and I got through pretty well only about a 3 or 4 on the scale. A huge improvement for me, I usually get hit hard and fast.  
 
I really feel as though the only thing really helping this cycle is the Melatonin (9mg) at night, this is the first time I have used this and it has made my cycles a lot different and a lot less intense, except when I take the meds too late and get to bed late, then it does not have a chance to kick in and the BEAST comes a knocking.
 
As for Monday AM it has been really good also, I did the same as Sunday night, took the Melatonin (9mg) and Benedryl (50mg), got a hot shower and bed by 10pm and I did not get any visits from the beast, its now going on 7am this morning and I have not even had a shadow yet today, I am holding my breath, but I feel like dancing today 2 PF nights and 2 nights of sleep, I just can not put the feeling into words, except MMMMMMMM !!!!  
 
Has anyone else had the same experience with the Melatonin, in the middle of a cycle? Just Friday I was at 4 CH’s a day and now they a more or less just shadows.. Oh well its feels good.
 
I just wish PFDAN to everyone !!! have a good day….

Well its 10am, and now I know why I choose the pic to the left and barrowed Burnt-Toast's saying at the bottom of this page.  
 
I went from having a good day, into a total TRAIN WRECK in a matter of 5 minutes, I just took another half of a 100mg TREX pills I hope it kicks in soon. Having these CH's at home is one thing, but having them at work really SUCKS !!!!!
 
Guess the BEAST is pissed-off, cause he is just kicking the S--T out of my head right now.. ok gotta go, can't type.. Sad

Well its been one hell of a night.  
 
I think the BEAST had another one of his parties and invited all his friends.
 
I got my first hit at 12:30a, decided to use 1/3 of the TREX inj. Been awhile since I took that stuff, worked pretty good, CH gone about 12-15 minutes. Back to bed about 1:30a.
 
About 3:00a I was awoke again, I danced around for about 10 min waiting to see if it was just a shadow, I think I knew better, but I wanted to make sure. I decided to use another 1/3 of TREX inj. Worked good again Ch gone about 10min, So I just decided to go back to bed, until my 4:30a wake up time.  
 
I did not make it, about 30min after going to bed, all hell broke lose,  I woke with the worst CH/HA that I think I have had this cycle, decided to take 1 Ultram 50mg pill, which the GP Dr said I could take if I felt I was taking to much Trex and it would work with the TREX (That did not happen).
 
What I got was somekind of a rebound CH/HA that was one of the worst I have ever had.. Sad I danced around till about 4:30a tring to get rid of it, it started easing off.
So I decided to get dressed and go to work, I left my house at 5am, I made it about 2 blocks and the pain was so intense again, I could not drive. So I decided to come back home.
 
I was so tired I sat on the couch holding my head and crying, I feel asleep sitting up. I woke about 30 min later with my head still pounding, danced around, sat back down, passed out again.  
 
I woke just about 9am, the bad CH/HA is gone, just I still have a really bad shadow about 5-6 on the scale, and my head feels like I have knifes stuck in it.
 
I do not know if this was the TREX inj. or the  
ULTRAM 50mg, I know I am going to ride out today and not take any more meds, unless I am dying, I can handle some pain, but not like this AM. That was enough to almost drive me over the edge, the type of pain you will do ANYTHING to stop.
 
Thurs morning 8am I see the NERO Dr, I just hope he has a big hammer in his office.. Smiley
 
My hope is that myself and/or someone else is learning from all this. It does help to get it out and vent a little, gives yourself a little more peace, in times like this is, its what you need. So that when you or someone else is there again, you can look back and say well I made it that time, I am going to make it this time..  
 
Good DAY & PFDAN to ALL !!!!!!

Well took my meds Melatonin (6mg) and Benedryl (50mg) followed by a Hot Shower@ 8:30pm, I was in bed by 9:30pm.  
 
I awoke at 11pm, with the BEAST kicking me in the head, it was only about a 5 or 6 on the scale, I got up danced around for about 45minutes, I did not take any meds (Hurt like HELL), I was spent I sat down on the couch, put my head in my hands and feel asleep, I think crying. I just wanted to wait 24 hrs before taking any more meds, after the night before, I just was not sure of what put me in such a bad place. I could not even see straight enough to drive to work.
 
So I woke about 2 am, of course with a stuff neck, from holding my head in my hands. I still had a really bad shadow kind of HA, but the KICKING had stopped. I decided to go back to bed, I slept till 4am. I was feeling a lot better, its amazing what even 3 or 4 hrs of sleep can do for you.
 
So its about 7am here and I am at work and doing pretty good, I keep getting some tingling in my temple, but it does not seem to be going BEAST at this moment.  
 
Thank God I see the NERO Dr tomorrow morning, I have all this info that I can take to him from this site and I hope we can get started on something and get things stable enough to live.
 
Thanks again & PFDAN to ALL !!!!

Well its now 7am, I am having a pretty good day.
 
I got out of work about noon today and have tomarrow off, one of our main machine that runs everything blew the motor. Smiley
 
Its cool but I scheduled my dr appt close to my work, figures.  
 
I came home, played with my dogs, took a 3hr nap and woke without any shadows or HA. I have not felt this good in about 1 week. I'm gonna take it.
 
Will post tomarrow after the NERO Dr's appt.
 
PFDAN to ALL !!! Smiley
