Mine started in 1970 when I was 22. Episodes ranged
from 2 to 6 weeks with a horrible 2-6 hour cluster
every other day. Since Jan 12 of this year, I've
been getting 1 or 2 per day, and now one woke me up
at 12:15 and oxygen did not work so I died for
90 minutes; then another woke me up at 4:15 and I
took an Imitrix shot -- these shots always work,
but my doctor is trying to limit the # of shots
due to side effects. ANYWAY, mine seem to be
changing and becoming MORE chronic; I'm getting
scared -- I used to take medication til I passed
out -- and if I can't keep taking the shots I don't
know what I'll do -- what do you do ??
