Oxygen Works!!!
Jun 15^th, 2010 at 10:14pm

Well there I was thinking that maybe, just maybe my cycle was over.... nearly a week pf. But then this morning at 4am I got hit again.

You know I realise that there is no cure for CH but I have certainly found the cure for the dread and fear associated with CH. This morning I managed to abort the hit with 02 in about 10mins. Woo hoo! I don't know what I'm doing differently, but it's working.

Normally during cycle I tend to stay up all night in order to avoid the hits - always been a night time sufferer - but now, knowing that I can abort so easily - I just might start going to bed a little earlier.

Life is good, this place rocks. Thanks everyone!!

Kate

I know whatcha mean about confidence in the effectiveness of the beast fighting arsenal at hand relieving a lot of the dread/terror.

Congrats Kate.

CH according to Bejeeber:

Strictly relying on doctors for CH treatment is often a prescription that will keep you in a whole lot of PAIN. Doctors are WAY behind in many respects, and they are usually completely unaware of the benefits of high flow 100% O2.

There are lots of effective treatments documented at this site. Take matters into your own hands, learn as much as you can here and at clusterbusters.com, put it into practice, then tell this CH beast Jeebs said hello right before you bash him so hard with a swift uppercut knockout punch that his stupid horns go flinging right off.

Congratulations, Kate. I also was getting up after the first 1AM hit, and staying awake in order to head off the next hit which for me usually came around 3AM. Work at night, sleep during the day. I began to feel like an anemic vampire! Never seeing the sun and feeling tired all of the time. O2 does indeed rock-and just for the heck of it, I want to plug demand flow valves. They really do cut down on the amount of O2 wasted between intake breaths. God bless!

Glad it is working so well for you, I hate it when the beast goes away for a week and then says surprise in the middle of the night, it is so disappointing. David

Reply #7 - Jun 16^th, 2010 at 2:30pm If 02 works, it can honestly be life changing. Of course you cant make a rookie level mistake like I did today and get caught at work with an empty tank. Though the tank does come in handy to bang your head against.

howdy yall. I don't know how the medical o2 works as far as having to rent tanks and what not, but I found a place on ebay that sells the steal E tanks with an in date hydro test, and a new valve for $19.99 free shipping. i got my two in the mail today. They have as many as you want. They have a ebay store too. GTS WELCO I had to do this because I fill my tanks at home. no RX.
