Hi Guys and Gals,
I've not posted on here for a while because, although I found it very helpful in the beginning, there seemed to be less and less to help me after a couple of years or so.
I now have a question for you more knowledgeable and experienced CH sufferers:-
I'm 71 years old and was diagnosed with CH about 10 years ago but have suffered with migraine for as long as I can remember (a long time ). I seem to remember reading a post by Bob (I think) saying that CH attacks sometimes fade away as one gets older. Over the last few months my headache pattern has changed significantly. Whilst I still get my daily headache which invariably hit sometime around mid afternoon and persist for a few hours at up to Kip 6 or 7 they are very rarely now on one side of the head. They now tend to be mainly migraine type (if I can put it that way), generally across the whole of the forehead, sometimes a little further back and round the side, but are never accompanied by any light phobia or feeling of nausea, and rarely get above Kip 3 or so.
Does this sound like an exit pattern or just a change of direction by 'the beast'?
Any thoughts anybody?
TIA,
Dave.

Although I had a really bad summer last year...this year I only get them during the day around 2-3 oclock or so and it hangs for several hours..not th shorter intense bursts I usually get and the pain mostly confines itself to the base on my skull and down my neck and get the ganglion lump as usual. I am 59 and didn't start getting them until I was in my early fifties. Early today I did have a pretty good one though.....made my cheek bone hurt like crazy for a while.
