Hi Ruthie.
Just to let you know that Demetria did a segment on clusterheadaches about 7 years ago and interviewed me and my doctor.
Well she didn't interview me, the medical anchor woman did but Demetria covered it from the station.
Can't wait to see you all.

That's super.... I'll refresh her memory and maybe she can also interview that doctor again.

I was watching Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives last night and seen a place in Nashville called BROS.. sure did have some mighty good looking meals... Roll Eyes

Bruce, 02 started failing me last cycle, first time ever for me. On Batch's advice, I started a regimen to alter my arterial PH, pretty simple:

Magnesium, Calcium Citrate with Vitamin D and zinc, washed down with fresh lemonade, up to 4X a day. I never went past 3X a day. In less then 36 hours 02 was kicking butt again.

Cheap, maybe worth a try.

Joe

Thanks Guiseppi ... definitely worth a try. Makes sense from a chemistry point of view as well ... sort of like a boost point for the O2 vasoconstriction effect.

Ok, so I'm thinking we may get to do this...bringing the Cheeki along with me if we go.

..Only thing is, there has to be something to do for a teen going on 16...I don't want her to be bored and stuff. She's never been to Nashville, so thinking the Grand Ole Opry someone mentioned could be a start.

I didn't see a date, is that set already?

Still thinking on it...

DITTO

The last Nashville convention was such a sucess because it was so centrally located that MOST folks could drive (saving money)

This year Dr. Goadsby has agreed to speak, Bob Wold will be there talking about busting as well as a few others you need to hear. Friday is pretty clear so we can all do some sight-seeing together and just sitting around, hanging out with friends is one of those things you can do for yourselves that will be so memorable and you'll never forget. The information is important as well as the support of just talking to one another.

Just watch out for Beeull and his camera or you'll end up on the pic thread here, around mid-July. Did I mention that those who come to their 1st. convention never ever miss another one???

My 1st. convention was in Atlanta and I flew in from Calif. That was in 2000 and I haven't missed one yet.

For those who are going.....we have an auction to benefit O.U.C.H. every year. Anything you can donate will be sold by Ruthie Harper (our auctioneer) and let me tell you how fun that auction has become. Never has so many people laughed so hard for so long at an auction. Grin

In the past Pat has generously donated one of her works of art, we've had backpacks, purses, wine, gift baskets, sweaters and jackets, hats, 02 tank covers from Christy... etc. etc. etc. If you can't be there but would like to donate something, please contact OUCH.

If you're on the fence about coming let me add this: You owe it to yourself.

If you're a sufferer and worry about bringing along a supporter who might feel left out, don't.

There is a group of us supporters who look forward with GREAT PLEASURE every year to getting together, swapping stories, tears, and lots and lots of laughs, along with plenty of sight seeing and shopping. Granted, it's usually all women, but we've been known to drag Jim Welch along (Linda's darling hubster) and anyone else we can fold into our group. We eat sleep breath and live CH with our sufferers all year long, this time is for US to recharge, too. With Kentucky Ruth along we're guaranteed to eat on time Wink

, and Christy can navigate us out of anywhere with her nifty GPS. We're good to go!!

Come along supporters - we'd love to meet you!

lol @ you Pat.

Like I said, at least friday is a day for hanging out and sightseeing. On saturday you do NOT want to miss Dr. Goadsby and Bob Wold and what they have to say on the latest treatments. Saturday night is the dinner and auction.

Go to the links to the left of here and click through the pics of past conventions to give you an idea.

Do NOT be the one who, every year says something on the order of: "oh woe is me I missed it. It looked like it was so much fun" etc. etc. etc.

Like Pat said, supporters have as much fun and learn as much as sufferers.

Go register now before the time is up for a reduced rate.
