Hi and welcome

Ever since I started killing of CHs with oxygen my eye hardly has time to get droopy like it used to when I used to have the 45-90 minute CH rides with the beast.

I'm confused by your mention of pain relief for headaches. Treating CHs with pain relief, normally narcotics, is not an effective way to deal with CH. What works a lot better is an abortive, normally oxygen or imitrex which can kill off a CH in a few minutes.

Are you working with a headache specialist for your CHs?

Have you got a good preventive, like verapamil, lithium or topamax to cut down how many CHs you get?
