So, you wouldn't want to consider sticking around to help the next finn that comes along? You know, kind of pay it forward?

I used to stay away out of cycle too...convinced even thinking about the beast could awaken him! ;D I stick aroiund for 2 reasons now:

1: The field of CH is advancing so fast I like to stay up with what's working and how changing the way we take stuff can increase its effectiveness.

2: Your experience might be what helps another CH'er suffer less.

Most importantly, I'm glad to hear you're catching some pain free time, that rocks!

seriuosly thank god for o2 i made it an entire cycle with only like 6 blow outs and those were all avoidable if i would have had the o2, i think its possible to avoid all hits in an entire cycle.

Oxygen has completely changed my outlook on the beast. When I KNOW I have something that'll beat his arse, he just doesn't scare me like he used to. So glad it's worked as well for you.

Joe

wow i just noticed you live in san diego, i live in bonita , small world maybe one time when a really bad one hits you can come over and drill a hole in my head ..lol

Small world indeed.

Very true Joe, I also have lost that deep seated fear of the beast..

02...Less.. [smiley=pokeeye.gif] And More.. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...

Lefty..!

still pf i got a shadow for a few days but no attacks, i even gasp went on a weekend trip w/o any imitrex, this weekend i will attempt to drink alchohol , will advise,but im bring the shots no doubt

The ultimate test of a cycle end...the beer test!!!! Praying the cycle is done. In the fall I'd like to do a San Diego afternoon at Sea Port Village. There are quite a few of us now. Just an afternoon for eats, drinks and pictures...(the board will crucify you if you have a get together without pics!)  ;D

Joe

its a bank holiday on thursday and since im on early shift and the weather is nice me and she who must be obeyed are out for a meal and a few drinks in the beer gardens. That will be my alcohol test my cycle ended but 19 days later (last friday got a smallish hit around 2:30) but since then nothing hoping it was a rogue one, find out tomorow.
ill let you know what my hangover is like on thursday LMAO

Mark (waiting in anticipation, get hit or not get hit that is the question, wether it is nobler in the mind) im feeling very shakspearean today

i've been pf for over a year and a half almost. even though i can't give much advice on meds or neuros i still like to hang out here. i've made some great friends on here too.
