The Dance Continues...

...and the band plays on.  Still doing my normal number of hits every day.  Life goes on.  The van died on us again.  Spent two days tracking down and repairing an electrical short.  Too much fun.  I guess I really can't complain.  It's a 94 Chevy Astro with 227,000 miles on it.  It's already lived two lifetimes for a vehicle.  Still...I can't afford to replace it right now, so I try to take good care of it.  My other vehicle is an 86 Nissan Sentra with 178,000 miles on it.  I don't think I'd know how to act if I was to ever get a new vehicle.  LOL

I had to go to Tulsa this past weekend so I called a clusterhead friend and we had a good reunion.  We met at the Family Diner and minutes turned to hours as the breakfast crowd finished their meals and the lunch crowd came and went.  For any cluster headache sufferer who reads this, if you have never met another clusterhead, you absolutely MUST.  There is an instant bond that is inexplicable.  No need to explain that droopy eye, no need to apologize as you excuse yourself to deal with an oncoming attack, just a quiet understanding and acceptance.  There's no telling how long Steve and I would have sat there drinking coffee and swapping stories if I had not gotten hit.  After dealing with the attack, we noticed how late it was.  I had to hit the road to get home.  I can't wait until the O.U.C.H. Convention this summer.  All you clusterheads should attend this.

On the medicinal front...I called the neuro's office and they agreed with me that I should wait until the swelling and redness had cleared up and give the Methysergide one more try.  If the redness and swelling returns, we can scratch yet another medication from the list.  Why am I not hopeful???
