Long time sufferer, just checkin in.

I must admit, it's been awhile since I've been on here. Hello to all my old friends. I have not gone into total remission, but I guess it's as good as it gets. No complaints.

The reason I post is that today I spoke with a young lady , referred to me by a mutual guitar playing friend. She's 25 and a second year of law school student, very bright young lady. I can assure you she is on the right path, with a good neuro who knows of Clusters and is working with her. She did not know of O2, she does now. She also has suffered from Chronic Migraines and some other medical issues, but CH has recently and apparently reared its' ugly head.

I like others don't post enough when not in cycle. I will work to remedy that. I know how difficult it is to deal with and pledge to help others if I possibly can. Nuff' said.

She's new, scared, as we all were and I tried to comfort her as best as possible and pointed her to our little comunity. She is consulting with her neuro today and I hope she finds relief.

Hello to all my old friends, and welcome to those who are new to this crappy thing we call cluster headaches.
I'm here for ya' , lord knows enough of you kind folks, were here for me a long time ago. I still appreciate it.

Should the mods. feel this thread should be moved please feel free, I was not sure where to put it.

The location is fine, great to see your mug around here again. Hope you and Deb enjoyed the pain free time.

Get that young lady on this board and let's get her on the right path. Good on you for taking her under your wing.

"Somebody had to say it" is usually a piss poor excuse to be mean.

Thanks Joe,

Deb and I do indeed enjoy the pain free time, and I'm currently out of cycle. Little hits but very occasional.

I have sent a link to that young lady, and certainly hope to see her on here in the future. I know this little community helped me a great deal. Least I could do is help somebody else. You've been helping for quite awhile yourself... Good on you my friend...  Smiley

There's  no taming the beast, but we can at least lend support to those who've yet been able to deal with it, and put it on a shorter chain.
