Title: just a question
Post by black on Sep 22nd, 2010 at 4:18pm
after continuous kip 8s and 9s with the last one lasting 3 and half hours with me crying,laughing moaning all the time with the pain to the point i started from rocking shaking whole body from exhaustion,anger,frustrution and no end(never felt this again so excessive)to the the point
i started blaming myself for being a coward not ending this nightmare once and for all,i finally started getting some sleep(Damn coffee,damn energy drinks,damn whatever )and now feeling a bit a better
and petrified if it hits soon again,i only have one question:

what the hell is the tension
about tension headaches? :P

p.s.1
is it really so necessary the eyebrow for all the pain it gives?
p.s.2
why niagara falls haven't been called the nostril?

groucho marx:humor is a reason gone mad

:P

I wonder how we'd be treated if everyone else experienced just one CH? No doubt there would be millions in funding.

And I love the Niagara Falls being renamed the nostril. It's quite amazing just how much stuff can come out so quick. I've no idea where it all comes from!

With the intensity of pain you report I doubt that energy drinks, etc. will give you relief. The best of the prescription meds are really your best bet.

The symptoms which center on our head/face come from a complex web of nerves which get activated during a Cluster. Tension is a normal response to our mind and body when we experience intense, prolonged pain. Will power has nothing to do with it.

If you can locate a headache specialist--that would be your best move.

See the PDF file, below, for infon on meds.

You've been at this a long time, Black. Such unremitting pain itself is a cause of tension, but the CHs are a cause within themselves. I am praying this new med combo works for you. Hang in there, stay alive and keep fightin'. Lance
