I am just back at the message board after being on vacation and i read the messages posted by Liz. i was almost jumping up and down when i read your first posting. Yes yes yes....confusion and trouble thinking straight. i experience the same thing. just to give you a little of my history...i've been chronic since the first of the year. after seeing a neurologist and going on verapamil i'm down to 3-4 per week, always at 6-7:00 at night. are your headaches like clockwork?? i am going to a new doctor Wednesday because i also feel i need to see someone else. when the first neurologist examined me, he did a test where i covered one eye and had to tell him which hand he was holding up. i could see his hand (no trouble with the vission) but i could not get the words LEFT or RIGHT to come out of my mouth when my left eye was covered. i asked the doctor about this...but he said not to worry. i also find that i get tounge-tied like i never did before. i started a new job and couldn't believe the silly mistakes i was making. it just didn't seem like me to be making these mistakes.
after reading your posting, i feel that i should not have keep these symptoms to myself. i have had an MRI and EEG- all normal.
i do fit the CH profile, one-sided pain, tearing eye, clockwork like occurances but maybe there is something more.
i would like to talk to you more about your symptoms and test results. maybe we will find some info that will help both of us....also from anyone else with this confussion
this board really is a wonderful thing.
