New to site - thank you for having it.
Apr 13^th, 2009 at 4:09pm

I just found this site a few days ago - have been having these headaches for 6 years now and am happy to see I'm not the only one! I started this journey going through too many doctors with their own opinions until I finally landed on Dr. Peter Goadsby at UCSF. Unfortunately, the news there was not what I wanted to hear. But I did get an Occipital Nerve Block and this has actually given me some relief - I didn't see much about that in here - anybody? I got it on Thursday, felt it trying to push through 4 times on Thursday but it wasn't able to! Then I did have one on Friday, none on Saturday, and 2 during the night Sunday. This is much better than 6 - 10 hours a day with this pain. But I insist on finding something that will work to get rid of it even if I have to do it myself! So far the oxygen is the only thing that has given some relief over the last 2 years since I started on it. Good luck to everyone.

Reply #2 - Apr 13^th, 2009 at 5:51pm Glad you found us, doubly glad you found Goadsby. You're on the right path there. I haven't ever had the nerve block but several on the board have. Hopefully they'll be along shortly. Joe
