Batch/All, Figured I'd give an update now that I've been trying the D3/Fish Oil regime since last Friday morning.
My cycle prior to starting this had been going for about a month and a half and had just started to ramp up. I was getting about around 2-3 attacks a day, fortunately only 1 was going above a KIP 5. I don't take any other type of medication, I don't have 02 right now (working on welding supply route), and I don't see a neurologist. My cycles occur in no regular pattern, last anywhere from 4-8 months, at one time I was chronic for 2 years, and have remission periods of 1 month to 1 1/2 years (the 1 1/2 years only happened once but I wish it would happen every time!)
I started on Friday by taking 10,000 IU of D3 (5 x 2,000) and 3,600 Omega 3 Fish Oil (3 x 1,200) and did that through Sunday. On Monday morning I increased the D3 to 12,000 IU.
On Friday and Saturday I had my regular 3 hits with one each day turning into a full CH (KIP level 7-8, 30 minutes long each). The other hits were mainly shadows with pain at a KIP 1-3 (very manageable). For Sunday, Monday, and today I've generally been pain free with some major shadowing. By major shadowing I mean almost all day, ranging from just a slight annoyance to the brink of transitioning into a CH. I've never experienced shadowing like this nor the feeling associated with it. The feeling is pressure/light pain on the left side of my head, right on my temple. About 5 times each day (Sun, Mon, Today) the shadowing seems to head towards a CH, sometimes increasing in pain for only a minute or so and sometimes dragging on for 30 minutes, making me wonder if it will become a headache or not. Only once, Today, did the peaking turn into a CH. The bout today lasted 30 minutes and I would describe it as a combined shadow/CH, about a KIP 6. That's the only way I can describe it because I hadn't experienced one like that before.
Since I've never experienced shadows like this nor have I been able to have 3 days PF during my cycle (minus the weird shadow/CH today), I'm assuming this is a result of the D3/Fish Oil regiment. I'll be honest and say that the constant shadowing is annoying, especially with the peaking that makes me wonder if it will turn to a CH or not. But on the other hand, I'd rather have that than 3 CHs that can possibly reach a KIP 10 (more near the end of my cycle). I'm wondering if I should increase my D3 to 15,000 IU, decrease D3, try to mix in the calcium citrate, or something else to tweak my results. Maybe too much D3 is causing the heavy shadowing or maybe I need more to eliminate the shadowing and accompanying peaks all together.
Batch/anyone have thoughts on this? I love feedback.
