Title: my cycle has a cycle
Post by mikstudie on Dec 2^nd, 2011 at 12:16pm

For the last 6 years I go one year on and one off,this year has been an off so next year..... (damm just jixed myself)

I have not had a twing,shadow or a hint of a CH this year. I spent 250 bucks on imitrex spray and didnt need a drop. Oh well I'll put it in the fridge and hopefully I wont need it.

Does anyone have a cycle like this(im not complaing) just wondering.

Oh, Hi everybody,I hope you all are doing the best you can.

I go on average 2 years off and 1 to 4 months on. I am currently back in cycle and hating every minute of it. I spend the off season stocking up on trex waiting for the beast to return. Once back in cycle I emmediatly begin the game of "which cocktail of drugs will break the cycle this time".

It sucks but could certainly be worse. This cycle has certainly proven to be the worst ever having up to 4 in 24 hours. Now I know that many people have many more for longer periods of time and I simply dont know how they do it. I wouldnt know what I would do if there was no end to the pain.

I have been on Lithium to counteract the 120 MG Prednisone taper and last night had an Occipital Nerve Block that hasnt worked that well. Next its the Verapamil. That plus lots of Trex and O2.

Good luck and stock up!

Eric

For the first 25 years they were like clockwork, 2 cycles, spring and fall. As I've gotten older, the remissions have grown longer, some as long as 2 years, and the cycles have grown longer, last one was 8 months! The beasts nature...he loves to morph. Hoping he loses your address for a few more years. :)
