Title: itīs official
Post by McGee on Jun 3rd, 2009 at 4:10am
So after what seems like a life time had my Dr visit yesterday, after yet another test where electrodes where stuck onto my head and showing nothing out of the ordinary I showed her my headache diary. 2 seconds later "well that will be cluster headaches then"  :o "lets get you on the O2" after i picked myself up of the floor she told me that the medical insurance are being a pain when it comes to O2 so we have to prove to them that it works so she gave me a can of O2 and told me to try it. Yes i know it wasnīt going to work but hey what the hell ill try anything once. next day back to my new best friend and told her it doesnīt work and gave her the info on what i need. "not a problem we will tell the insurance that it does work and get you on the right set up" to wich i fell over again. I contacted the insurance and told them what i needed and waited with dread in my heart "yep no prolem send us the form and we will get it sorted out for you should take about 2-3 days" Be still my beating heart.

so im now officially a clusterhead. my O2 should be arriving in the next days all i need now is to come out of cycle, win the lottery and my wife to tell me she thinks bigger breasts would be a good idea.
ok 2 out of 3 aint bad  ;)

a thousand/million thanks to you all for you help in the past and in the future.

Well I'm torn between the happiness of seeing you find a good Dr and the sadness of finding we really are related.

I hope O2 works as well for you as it does for me.  Be patient ... it can take a little practice to get things right.

Bigger breasts indeed  ;D

While waiting for the O2 to arrive go and get yourself a good mask (you won't get one with the O2 since the suppliers don't have them).

If you need info on where to get them in Germany send me a PM.

The number one thing you will NEVER hear a man say..."Her breasts are entirely too large!"  ;D (Heaven help me if Chrisy sees this!!

That is awesome news. Amazing how much info a simple diary can provide for diagnosis. I'm with Dennis, danged sorry we're CH related, but so happy you've scored the 02. Hoping it works as well for you!

thanks oliver ill look into that and get back to you.

iīm so excited im like a kid on x-mas eve waiting for santa. just to have a Dr who understands and is willing to help is a god send. She did of course have a go at me as i was taking the triptan like a kid at a candy store, had a few weird side effects, my arms broke out in little red spots and i eventually came to the conclusion that i was getting rebound headaches from them so i stopped taking them last week and will only use them when the O2 doesnīt kill it first.

im off to phantasialand fun park on saturday with the wife for a weekend break (wich we both need) and my sister arrives from the UK on tuesday with her newborn and husband so lots of goooing and gaaaing then off to the local pub i think and leave the women to talk about breast implants and there medical benifits  [smiley=girlflash.gif]

Mark (waiting for santa)
