Yikes.....you must feel like a time bomb.

I had shadows for two weeks before the big one hit. In which case I sure wish I had taken some prevents then, instead of waiting.....but you never know when to do what with this beast. I think I would get armed just in case....Never heard of one attack, but you never know.   Good luck       lorac

I have been episodic for 15 + years and this year it started with a kip 5 at most and has been shaddows (kip 3-4) for 2 months now. I have been contacted by people who have had similar episodes. If something seems out of the normal pain wise - neurologicaly it never hurts to visit the doc. No one should ever feel like a fraud for experiencing the beast.I wish I would have gone to the doc with the first signs of my cycle and started the prevents etc.. Hope it is one and done for you. Painfree vibes.  Jay
