I didn't know so many people live like this everyday. Is there any
hope, has anyone found help? I have been this way since 1988,
everyday, day in day out. I have days that are worse, I know when the
next barimetric pressure change will occur and throwing up isn't far
behind, I have days that are better, you know a 3 or a 4. I can't
imagine what life would be like without a headache. I just figure
that it is my cross to bear, like arthritis in the head. I am
allergic to aspirin, demeral just knocks me out but the headache is
still there. I can take a pain pill that takes the edge off, but
never takes the pain away. People ask me, how do you live like this,
I ask: how else am I suppose to live? Drugged, going from doctor to
doctor with no help? I have tried chiropractic, bio-feedback,
accupunture, I quit smoking, tried quitting white foods, no MSG,
etc... and nothing has ever helped, not even a little. Dr says I may
just need to decide that this is just the way things are going to be
and live with it.
I sure do sound like a sad sack, I'm really not. I figure if I can't
beat this, I'll live with it, I seldom miss work, I do volunteer work,
you know how it is..........life goes on, it's my choice how I want to
live everyday. There are so many other people in this world who have
a far worse road to hoe than I do. But doesn't anyone know how to
improve life as I know it?
Thanks in advance, for just reading all this junk, I wouldn't wish CHD
on my worse enemy, so I am so sorry for you, god bless you and keep
you safe.

Hi Teresa, Something seems to be helping. I am not sure if it’s the cymbalta or the steroid. My headaches usually start coming on midmorning and only get...
