I very much assume that the relationship between the US and Canada is very much like that between Australia and New Zealand. Fierce rivals for anything relating to sports or beer but otherwise getting on with each other pretty well.

Don't worry if you're not on the right side of the ditch, I won't mention anything to do with "that incident" with cricket or the claims that Phar Lap was an Australian horse either.

our governments get along fine but the people shit all over Canada whenever we can, but everyone threatens to move there when their guy doesn't win the election.
Which lead to some funny comments on facebook when people were threatening to move to Canada because America was too liberal with ~~Bush 3.0~~ Obama.

Mike NZ, wrote, claims that Phar Lap was an Australian horse.
To race goers here he was, he helped save the bacon of many
a punter during the great depression, hence why Aussies claimed him their own. " But he was foaled at Timaru NZ on the
4th of October 1926, breeding, Night Raid - Entreaty(byWinkie.")
As for cricket i know nothing about. Smiley

All I can add to what has been written already is my experience with O2 was pretty much the same as yours: 15lpm worked, but not real well. When I went up to 25lpm I found it to be a whole new ballgame. Hopefully, you will, too. Blessings. lance

Oh no need to, them Canadian grandmas just stand little Donnie up in the corner with a crosscheck, help find your two front teeth, grab a kleenex from her purse to stop that nose gusher, snap it back shut, put her gloves back on and skate away. They're really polite, just hold your head back for awhile with the kleenex while watching the Bruins and eating ice cream through a straw.

I've nothing helpful on steady shadows. Usually could mean my prevent is slightly undergunned. Otherwise a energy drink or two, O2 if it's getting heavier.

I feel ya Idorko. These cursed shadows hit me nearly every day all day. I thank God (and Batch) that the 4-6 times a day kip 7-10’s have subsided. I truly believe that is due to the vitamin d3 regiment these kind folks around here talk about, which is currently my only preventative. Energy drinks do seem to help at times. Imitrex if the beast decides to slip through the cracks.

Like you I have also tried Verapamil, started with 180mg, after the dosage was increased I started experiencing irregular heartbeats. Cut that out. The O2 had little effect other then light headed “high” sort of feeling. I have just recently been diagnosed with CH, March of this year to be exact. I am starting to fear that I am a chronic sufferer. Things are much better now than a month ago, but the shadow of this damn beast still lingers. Best of luck to you my friend.

Assalamu Alaikum
