I haven't had a chance to try it yet cause I can't get the right mask. I am confused now because all I've read is non-rebreather with valves on each side, correct? John with Lincare basically is now upset with me now and we all but got into an argument over the masks. He told me that he could not order a non-rebreather with valves on both sides. He said that the regular breathing masks work fine for CH sufferers and I know I offended him. sigh! I guess I will see if it works or not.

Don't let the mask thing get to you, Woody. Stuff like that happens to us all the time. Just go ahead and use the one you have. I was told too that they couldn't get me one. They said only EMT's use the "full" nonrebreather masks with valves on both side. My solution: Duct tape!! It really doesn't need to have valves on both sides. As long as it has one, you'll be fine. However, if there's a hole on the other side, cover it up and let the single valve do it's work. No need to hit the Lincare guy over something like that! Let us know how it works for you! Adam

| Hi Woodeye, I am sorry that I am so late in posting on this thread - I just read what you wrote and wanted to respond. When we get hit hard, we tend to react in a major way, some say that we are dramatic but then those people. My hits always rank on the high end of the KIP scale, no less than an eight. Anyways, the video of Chuck's attack was tame to me. I tend to pace, rock, moan, throw things, slam my head into any hard - some might say that that is extreme and it might just be me that reacts so harshly. It has nothing to do with pain threshold, more of trying to deal with the attacks as they come. I have never understood how people can sit and focus on oxygen or something like. I cannot do that for the life of me but maybe the difference is the level of the attack. Anyways, I just wanted to write and tell my end of things. And I am in no way diminishing anyone else's pain or saying that mine is worse... I promise. I hope that your headaches slow down and that the oxygen works for you. Jill
