Title: Paper handout for friends and family
Post by bradintoronto on Mar 6th, 2014 at 8:47pm
Hi, hoping someone can help me.
I suffer from CH's very seldom, and haven't had a series for over 5 years, but I'm afraid one is coming in next few days.  (Mine somewhat build up for a few days until the full series starts).
Someone years ago sent me an attachment that I could hand out to people, explaining what they are, how I will act, what they should do etc.
Does anyone have a copy they could share?  It was so great to be able to give one to my boss, explaining why I need to be alone for 45 minutes everyday at 11:30 for 2 months (waiting for the zomig to kick in.

If anyone could help out, that would be awesome.  I got it originally from someone on this board.

Take care everyone, I so feel for those that suffer worse than I do (which is pretty much everyone on here). 
Bless you all.

I suspect that the handout is the colleague letter that was on the OUCH site, however it is now just blank pages.

The cached version of the page is:

But the letter itself is not available from Google. Does anyone have a copy?

That is an HTML version of the letter.

Brad, there is no reason you should have to wait 45 mins for Zomig to kick in.  Are you using tablets?  O2 at 25 lpm through a O2ptimask (see CH.com store on the left) will kill a hit for me within 5-8 mins.  Read the "oxygen info" button also on the left.

Look into the Vit D3 regimen that has given relief to about 80% of us.  It's good for you anyway!
