Unhappy Anniversary
Sep 23rd, 2010 at 5:09am
 
It just dawned on me...
This month marks 23 years with CH. It's hard to believe it's been that long since it's been over half my life, but I started at 17.
23 years later, while not fully done with them, I have them under control better than I ever did, but it doesn't make it any easier when the drilling starts.

Now I keep waiting for the time I can come here and count a different anniversary: years w/o a CH.
It could happen! (in my best Judy Tenuta voice.)

Worn out, back to bed,

Live each day as if it were your last because one day, you will be right.

I know what where yer at, Carl. There are better abortives than when I had mine but you'd think that they might have done better with it. However, we aren't running around in flying cars or vacationing on the moon as Popular Science promised.

Things will get better anyway Carl. I promise.

I'm with Charlie! Imigran for a prevent, lidocaine drops down my nose for abortives.  Grin We've sure come a long way.

I'm still pissed we don't have the rocket packs to get around with... Angry

That's a long time with ch, Carl. My number will be 10 next year, and that seems a long to me!

I hope it's just PF years from now on.... Smiley

Hi Carl,

     Had I known about this site 3 weeks ago I would have been able to post a 6 year remission anniversary, another cycle just started 2 week ago. I had them before Neil Armstrong 1st landed on the moon. Did not even know what an abortive was until I found this site last week.

     I think that the first line in any medical book under Cluster Headaches should read, “Tell the patient to go to Multimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!!  You need to Login or Register

     Well I hope we all can post yearly remissions anniversaries one day or at least, I have had the beast under control for X amount of years.

Cheers,
Bud
