Oh Ike.. I am so sorry about last night. I really hope that you get a break soon... really really soon and a really really long one.

I have gotten bruises as well though I am not sure what they are from. Sometimes I know it is from throwing my fist (and other things) into my eye to hit it but other times I am not sure. Do you put your fist into your eye at all? I do that all of the time and I think that that might do it too.

Here are lots and lots of hugs for you and good vibes and prayers for a break real soon.

Much love
Jill

Ike, I am really worried about you. Is it possible to get some in hospital treatments ? Like IV drip of DHE or something ? You really need a break from this !

DHE Is next on the plan from the neuro, Im trying to push the appointment up a bit, still got about 5 weeks to wait !!
Might just cut my head off before then ! lol

FIVE WEEKS ???? Thats insane !!

Another clusterhead had a very high cycle when oxygen and imitrex stopped working for him so he went for 2 lots of IV DHE and 4 intranasal sphenopalatial block and it broke his cycle. He is now completely painfree.

The DHE IV was given by his GP in the surgery with just a slow IV push followed by a bag of saline. Your GP should be able to do that for you too while waiting for the neuro appointment.
