Dont forget your Meds Kids!!!

I Met the Ex for a little christmas shoppin at a nearby Walmart in a town 25 miles away. We spent a nice day shopping ( about 3 hours) Things were going great, I had a company christmas party in that same town that night we were going to after shopping(me and the ex get along better then most).
Then it happened ,I dont no if it was the crowd or the exitement of mayby getting lucky later. but I felt that feeling you get, that slowly warming, here it comes, you have 5 minutes to get the heck out of there feeling.
I let Angie No I had to go and sorry we couldnt make the party, She understood, Since I have the kids she was wanting me to just get home safe.
By the time I turned on the highway for the 25 mile treck home it was a 6 heading for a 7, The hospital at the town I was in was out of the question, By the time they ask all their silly questions, I would already be home to my Imitrex injection.
Another 3miles down the rode its a full 10 and thats the way I rode that last 20 miles, shreaking pain down one side of the head, window down in 20 degree weather, if it were not for the kids waiting for me at home, a Tree along the side of the rode at 70miles an hour was not a bad option at the time!(JUST KIDDING)
But you know thats how we Feel.
Anyway I finally got home got to my Trex was better in two minutes.And have a makeupdate with the ex tonight.
Please everyone have a safe and merry christmas and dont forget to have their meds with them, Driving under Cluster conditions is a Very Dangerous condition for all on the road, I myself am not proud of my actions!!
Its my fault for not being more responsible about my condition!!

So glad you made it safely.
Does O2 work as an abortive for you? Can you keep a tank in the car for just such episodes?

Tried O2 dried me out to much even at lower levals,
Realy, with the type of clusters I get I have to hit them with a hammer.
These are almost always the burning steak to the right eyeball, type< I never get anything, thats a happy medium. Been that way since I stated suffering them 6 years ago.
I had sinus surgury, that did wonders in early 2005 to clear up a clog on the right side. But that did not fix the problem like I hoped>
Im on 75mg morning topamax and 75 night(started 2 weeks ago) it was 100 mg daily
also720mg verapimil daily.(split twice)
For now Im doing a predizone tapper down ever since yesterday, Ive had nightly wakeups for a threeweeks and we are going to nip the in the bud.

I remember Brad gettin hit BAD when we were out on the bike years ago in summer with friends at a cookout/ party......it was getting towards dusk and the air was a bit cool ridein......of course 'we had to go'.......he's not a pretty site when bein hit, not for the squimish !! We rode home a lill faster then I would like to of but we took back country roads and got home just before dark. He had his body shifted sidways to get the full effect of the cool air blasting against him on his face past the windshield for the pain.......it was a thrill ride home leme tell ya, I wanted to kiss the ground when we pulled into the driveway. He rides safe but he was hurtin BAD and didn't want stuck at this party with all he goes thru.....his hits lasted an hour or two leaveing him totally EXHAUSTED. And people that did get to see a glimpse of his hits comeing on were SHOCKED cuz of the 'stroke look' syndrone he got real bad. Even gave me the willies. Don't leave home without it Pam
PS: Why do sum older men get that dick head lookin nose.....what causes that.......just curious........????

Invest $5 dollars in a 02 humidifier, it will save your lungs and throat from dryness hell.
You can get it at a medical supply store.

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

Thanks Johnny!!!
My smoking a pack of cigs a day probably doesnt help either 
I had to give up the alcohol, but man I just cant find a way to let go of the smokes!!!
Well a beer on occasion,but it costs me a for sure cluster!So If I do go for a night out I have to be very selective and have Imetrex on the ready.
