I've never lost consciousness but have had violent shaking during a bad hit. I don't know if it is due to being so cold or if it's the pain or what.... CH is fun, isn't it? Always keeps us guessing!

Sorry about that. Don't be sorry. When I started this thread I just hoped to get some responses. I got that, some good advice AND a laugh. I'd say that's brilliant! Thanks for that, all of you!

I must be going soft in the head, I agree with Chuck Wink

I agree, get thee to a doctor, and have it checked out!

BUT, having said that, I had a similar reaction, when I first came down with clusters. That and total amnesia for the whole episode. THAT is one of the reasons it was so difficult to get the proper diagnosis. I would pass out, or go into a semi comatose state, and I could not be woken up. It would last for up to an hour, before I came back around.

Then I would not remember the attack at all. Sometimes up to an hour before and after I woke back up, I would have no recollection of. They never did find out what was causing that. The guess that has been given to me, since then, is that the pain was so severe, that my body would shut down, and my mind would wipe it out, so that I could survive. I don't know if that is what happened, or not, but I suppose it could be what happened.

BUT, that does not give you an excuse to skip seeing your doctor about this!

I would only pass out after a long battle with a KIP 10 & before I found out about o2.
My Nuro when questioned said that it was possible that the body would do that at intense pain levels.

Best of luck
Cheers
