Is there a difference between migraines and cluster headaches? I read an article recently that reported that some people with cluster headaches were getting relief from LSD and magic mushrooms. At least one neurologist apparently thinks it's "a reasonable thing to consider".
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
It is sooooooooooooo tempting to just let it bug you...
Oooh! I know! Say, "Danica is the queen of me" sixteen times!Oh, I can live with my typo if that is the price, believe me.
STOP WITH THE HEADACHES!My brain is listening to you as well right now. Bless its misfiring little synapses...
I need milk and firelogs. But I am too comfy to go out and fetch them. Especially as they really require two different stores. Also a food coma sounds nice.

Mostly lurking...

It was accompanied with two very nice glasses of wine. Really, a perfect evening.

Sounds like a perfect evening, vw.

If I were having pain like cluster headaches were described as being, I'd think hallucinogens were totally reasonable too. (Didn't mean to imply otherwise. I forget everyone here doesn't know me. In fact, no one does. Which you'd think I'd remember.)

Didn't mean to imply otherwise.I didn't think you did at all. It's just with the headaches I have had in the past week? Medically induced comas sound like they might even be reasonable. *I* am just amazed at what sounds like it might be reasonable to me these days. LSD? Sure. Why not...
Yay for your trip, sj!

It just baffles me that so many people can have such debilitating pain for so long, and medical research can't find anything to help it, or what causes it. Dealing with chronic pain is a hot button of mine; I only have relatively minor back pain, but I spent years caring for someone with chronic severe pain, banging my head against the stone wall of physicians who wouldn't prescribe a decent painkiller... well, anyway. I just think medical researchers and doctors should be working harder and looking at more options to eliminate chronic pain, not just manage it.

End of October to the beginning of November, so that I can see the kids on Halloween and T for her birthday. I didn't realize how badly I needed to book this trip until I was on the phone with T and the elder nephew telling them I booked the trip and found myself fighting back tears. I think we already have every second of the trip planned. It should be so much fun.
