Hey Dave,
Read your original message and the one you posted tonight. Sounds nothing like mine. Mine seem kind of 'standard', if you will. They wake me up after about 15 minutes or so of sleep. But that's it, I just roll around hurting for hours. I am truly sorry to hear the way your feeling and can only try to empathise.
Like I said before, I am new to the whole CH pathology (Except for my own) but I have been in the nursing field and my x-wife is a RN and some in my family are involved in the medical field. From what I have heard/read and remember (Kind of delerious from lack of sleep, sorry) I must say that this sounds like a medication induced side-effect or stroke or siezure or a bad interaction with more than one medication you are taking (New medication added?). I am definitely no expert but I would seriously advise having someone knowledgeable about medications and side-effects/interactions and or possible conditions review your problem as soon as possible.
Best of luck and I pray for some health and help for you and your wife Dave.

BTW, you guys are kind of scaring the hell out of me. Before, I was just scared of the pain and shame and debilitation. Perhaps, there is more fun to come?!? This sounds like a friggin nightmare. Wish I could help you. Hope you figure it out and it goes away!
PS - Dave, sorry about the length of this post but it's kind of your fault. You created a wordy monster by posting that Hang On! thing. LOL :)
