god i wish this cluster would finish, im getting rebound h/a as well now. i got them last year but it was put down to the prednisone i was on...seems it must have been the imigran afterall. had to have a shot of pethedene yesterday, my dr didnt know where to put me, i was in heaps of pain, they gave me oxygen which ran out when i was using it, after 1/2 an hour they decided to give me the shot, but made me have a pregnancy test first...by that stage i was ready to collapse. you can imagine the looks i was getting from all the other patients ! ive had another c/h this morning but got thru the night o.k. ive been put off work for two days, but dont have any sick leave owing to me. my employer is trying to be understanding, but i think he is finding it all quite hard to swallow. the only thing in my favour is the fact that when im well im the bubbliest most extroverted person at work and everyone has noticed a big change in my personality over the last few weeks, i dont think they really understand, but it is nice that some of them try. i have given my best friends and workmates reading material about c/h (it definately helps having so much info on the net)i would be so much more alone without this site. DJ i love you! to all the chronic sufferers, my heart totally goes out to you, i believe you are the strongest people i have ever known - you give me the strength to cope with this disorder, i wish peace and pain free days to all of you..
