hello my name is Jamie been a ch sufferer for 3 years suffer with it quite bad im in no set pattern meaning although i do get short periods of respite usually a month or two i can have an attack at any time of day night and any time of the month i am so relieved i have found this website for the last year i felt truely alone with this as ppl often branded me an attention seeker and doctors branded me as (drug seeking behaviour) for a while i persisted with my G.P to do something but refused stating that he believed i was trying to scam drugs and he doesnt believe me i finally went for a second opinion where i later managed to recieve a doctor open minded enough to believe and through luck i had an attack right there in his surgery and due to the swelling in bloodshot eye they finally took notice lucky for me i have a great team at the royal london hospital (neurology dept) only they cant help me with ways to cope and deal with an attack as my meds only do so much to ease it any and all feedback help or jus saying hi would be greatly appreciated and of course thankyou CH.Com thanx guys and girls hope to talk to you soon X

hi Clarkson, I have been a sufferer for over 10 years, although cycle every 2 years, i have just joined this site too. great site for research, or just Reading posts when you feel alone. what meds are you on? you mention that they only do so much, i'm on sumatripton inj. to abort which works very well but limited due to the max dose in 24 hours, i'm going to the docs tomorrow to see if he will prescribe oxygen, as this seems quite effective for most people, and does not have overdose issues!

clarkson and scuba_lee

You have both posted on the "editing profile" board. Why don't you post again on "getting to know you" board, where you will likely get more response.
Maz.
