Has anybody experienced a very subtle sound in their head prior to and during a CH? I hear several little "snap, crackle and pops" like Alka-Seltzer. could this be a nerve, gland, etc? No jokes here, sincerely serious about this.

OK...I thought I was weird remembering the same thing...but not everytime.

Mine usually happens towards the end of a hit. I was thinking it was some kind of decompression ...though I shudder at the thought. I have gotten it a few times during the ramp-up as well.

I have mentioned it to a couple neuro's in the past...usually followed up by a quizzical look and then marching orders to the nearest hospital for a scan of some type. Nothing but grey matter in there everytime, though I'm sure the people that know me personally would argue that...

That seems logical

I also used to hear that little fizzle snap pop right when the trex would take hold of the pain. It however went away after that bout and now I no longer hear it.

I am getting crushed by the beast this time around and am going through trex like never before. But no sound any longer.

That trex is some strange stuff but I would be dead without it.
