Title: New one
Post by Shaka on Jul 11th, 2009 at 11:03am
Hi everyone,im glad i found this amazing site relative to my condition...
my ch story started 4 years ago,im 28 now....my ch cycles only come in july and last for 6-9 weeks....this is my fourth year dealing with the beast,i got the o2 3 days ago and im in no preventive meds yet...

i have some questions.
this time my cicle is completely diferrent from before in the last 10 days i only got 2 hits,last year was always 1 hit per day always 2 hours after lunch time....one thing that called my attention reading this site was the water treatment since when my ch began i always get the skin in my hands ripped off,like a dehidratation problem,im taking lots of water now ,dunno if its the reason of only having 2 hits in 10 days...and the time my ch comes is after lunch during digestion when the body consumes a lot of water in the process..dunnno if its realted but who knows....my ch comes always when is summer time...

ive done 1 tac and 2 different types of mri,one standard i think and one vascular...and both were fine except they said something about some sinus in the same side of ch...

i wonder if anyone beetween cycles haves a strange sensation in forhead like feeling like scratching,not pain,but it bothers me(im having this sensation the past 4-5 monts before this cycle hitted)????

I responded to your earlier post....just wanted to add, don't be suprised at how often the beast morphs on you. From my 20's into my 40's they were setting the atomic clock to my cycles. 3 month cycles, 2 hits a day, NEVER a wake up hit at night. I hit my 40's they went all over the board! A annoying trait of the beast!

What Joe said!  Just when you think you have the beast figured out and handled he changes on you and you get to start all over again.

As far the head itching I doubt if it is CH related, but one never knows.

i havent tried the o2 yet,i got it 5 days ago and since then i hadnt had any hit... :-/

Callico its not really a scratch feeling,i cant describe it,i only know its strange and feels like the muscle in my forhead its stuck or something,if i do some massage there it goes away and backs again,im trying applying a gel now to see what happens(trombocid-its meant to allow better circulation under skin)

Sorry for my english,dunno if the word gel exists :D  ;D

Hi Shaka

Welcome
I get the itchy/wriggly feeling on my cluster side on top of my head  & have found if I give the area a good hard rub with the ends of my fingers, much like a massage it will go away after a while.
I’d describe the feeling like a bunch of worms under the skin.

Cheers
Barry
