Headaches — Chronic Paroxysmal Hemicrania » Blog Archive

feeling better

Yes, I actually went TWO WHOLE DAYS without any attacks! Amazing but true! There is definitely a seasonal change in me. They decreased this time last year too, so, if it goes the same way as last year, then, they will stay at a minimum until about October. Lovely!!! I have over the last year, been able to function better during an attack than I was able to before. This is good, because every year they are a bit worse than the year before, so if they are more intense every year, and I am able to endure a little more ever year than the year before, then thats all the longer before I will end up having to take medicine and thats a really good thing.

Share and Enjoy:

Hi, I came across your blog yesterday while trying to get some info on PH. I’ve been suffering god-awful headaches for 37 years and was diagnosed with cluster headaches when I was about 20 or so (I’m now 48). Yesterday saw another nuerologist who isn’t convinced I have CH, but thinks I may have CPH although I show features of both Anyway, has put me on Indomethacin as a trial. Nothing in the past has ever worked, and I’ve tried the lot! I just want the pain to go away.

When you get free days don’t you just feel totally uplifted? WONDERFUL! The trick is to keep that feeling even when the darkeness threatens to descend, which is difficult I know. My heart goes out to you and all the others with this and other awful head pain.

Hey – I found your blog when I was searching for possible new info on CPH since I was diagnosed a while back. I hadn’t heard of anyone else or met anyone else who had it, so when I found your blog, in an odd way, I felt comforted… I sympathize with you and everything you go through… they are terrible terrible things, and once I was prescribed the indocin, my headaches started getting better. I’m currently in a bad episode… I’ve had a headache 3 out of the past 4 days… and it’s my finals week. Not so good. Good luck to you, my friend.

Yes! I have noticed that my headaches get better in the summer as well. My husband and I went to Australia over the Christmas holiday, and immediately, my headaches got better. As soon as I got back to the cold US, they started up worse than ever. I am wondering if it is really the warm weather though, or if it is the longer day.
