hello to all ,well where do i start? i have had chronic chs for 12 years now but have only been diagnosed for six months ,sound familier to anyone?.well i am a 33 year old guy with a great partner and two wonderful children and without them i doubt that i would still be here .I live an good life now but it was not always so,six months ago myself and family had to move from our home because of threats from neighbours because i did not agree with the way they made their money ,pusfing misery onto others ,i had to move my family four hundred miles away on the recomendation of the police as our safety was at severe risk.So we moved , we had to leave everything behind so basically left with the clothes on our backs,throughout this time my chs hit an all time high and i found myself standing on a chair beneath a loft hatch thinking that i could not go on any more.well i am still here and fighting on .Now it may seem like i am getting the violins out but basically i would like some contact with the outside world lol,it would be nice to hear from other people who suffer from chs as talking always helps !!! so feel free to come over and have a chat etc and i look forward to hearing from you guys whoever you are   ,,,,Dave

Wow Dave!
Sounds like you and the family have been through a lot.  And then add some really bad and rare headaches in to the batch.
Are you on any medication? Got a good a doctor? Using the O2 yet?

PFD,
Angela

Welcome Dave. When you get a second, tell us a little about your regimen, meds that have and haven't worked, what you're using now. You've got a gazillion years of real life CH experience on the boards, maybe we can make a suggestion to take back to your doc that'll help you out.

Glad you found us, you're not alone with CH anymore!

Hiya Dave, Ive been though a lot as well before i even started to get my headaches and sometimes you think why me? i suppose you have to keep on trying really there is always someone worse off i suppose but you never think that when you have got your headache. sometimes i just want the world to stop for me because I'm having a hard time but it doesn't work like that life goes on for everyone else while were suffering. Its nice to know someone who has been through a lot as well as suffering with the condition, makes you think...maybe I'm not alone??

Hi Dave,
We are maybe near neighbours - I live in north Cornwall.
Understand some of your pain, we're all different but the chair under the loft hatch has some similar overtones.  My worst point was about 3.30 one a.m. driving to some cliffs near our home and for a while the idea of putting it in gear and just flooring the throttle was not only real, but strong.  Luckily I too have a fantastic pair of kids and an incredibly supportive wife.
I'm not sure how many of us are in this part of the UK, but perhaps we'd email via site and take it from there.  Due to your previous probs, understand if you not want to.
Are you cared for locally, or like me seen at NHNN in London?
Hang in there, I've found so much strength from this site.
Andy
