Title: I'm due this year :(
Post by jkitchen on Apr 18th, 2014 at 3:08pm
My last cycle was in 2009. I'm a every 5 year guy. Last time though was a first. Are you ready? I got them on the same side as always, lasting the typical 2 weeks. But then it switched sides, and there I was for another 2 weeks on the other side of my head. I just thank god I tried oxygen when I was having my 2004 cycle. Oxygen, for me, chases them completely away in 15 minutes for 24 hours.

It'll either happen or not. You can't be certain it will, so why worry about it? Just make sure that you've preventive and abortives on hand, then get on with life.

It just may skip this year again, so as Mike stated, don't worry about it. 

Always have an o2 tank, a clean non-rebreather mask and regulator and wrench handy....along with stockpiling meds that worked for you in the past. 

You might consider starting the anti-inflammatory vitamin regimen which has proven effective for most who've diligently followed protocol.  It certainly can't hurt and may give you a peace of mind that you are fearing. 

Bottom line is you are not in cycle now and you really shouldn't fear the unknown.  My last suggestion is to live your life as normal and enjoy your Easter weekend! ;)

Know how that feels. I feel like I'm due any day now, or perhaps it might be this fall... Not like I've got the time to worry about it 8-)
