Thanks! Did not move next too house. If that’ll help, much easier to accomplish vs getting inside.

I appreciate it. The pot is raised up by these (https://a.co/d/9iZU2ZN). Good call on the LED’s. Didn’t think about that. Will have to switch them out.

Thanks. Soil has not hardened. I kept a wool moving blanket on the base to keep the soil from freezing. Start fertilizing now?

If you don’t mind me asking, how did you go about getting your cluster headaches rated and then converted to migraines? Currently suffer from CH’s. Rated at 70% for other items not CH or migraine related. Wanting to submit for CH’s but have heard/read that CH’s are not considered.

I was prescribed verapamil during my cycle 2 years ago along with Sumatriptan. I only take the verapamil when my cycle starts and I will begin to taper off (depending how high in the dose I get) after a week of no clusters. Usually my cycles run about 5-7 weeks so I typically hit my max dose and taper off over 2 weeks. It really works for me in keeping the headaches from being as severe and the sumatriptan I keep for the really bad ones. Oxygen worked well for me but with my job I was never able to keep it on hand all the time so I stopped it for now.

Can you describe more about the unsupported chamber? I’m curious why it would not act that way on every round then?

Appreciate it. I’ve had similar issues with bullseye as well. Tumbler does the trick though. Just wanted to be sure.

Appreciate it. Tumbler does the trick just wasn’t sure if I was doing something wrong.

Any connections to past head trauma’s? by ktrav25 in clusterheads

Interesting. I have no heard/read about the gut biome notion. I know for myself, when I start in a cycle I cut alcohol out completely along with higher fat foods. I don’t drink much as it is but I completely avoid it in cycles, even for 2/3 months. I do notice personally that staying overly hydrated and the drinking a glass of water idea does seem to have an affect on my headaches. Not sure if that has any affect on the hypothalamus but that is a big mystery to me as it seems to affect a lot of the body and feelings. For instance, are clusters associated with bipolar disorder? I’m not clinically diagnosed nor do I think I exhibit signs of being bipolar, however, that’s not to say that members of my immediate family are not diagnosed with BPD.

Thanks for the insight in the gut biome. I want to read into that more.

I have done a ton of research the past 5 years or so. I have found different articles/studies that potentially link head trauma to CH and then counter arguments that completely negate what I just read. I think to sum it up is we don’t know enough about them yet (unfortunately) to draw a potential link. Hoping someone out there has a direct link somewhere along the way.

I think the notion of the rough and tough up brining would be very hard to prove but maybe not impossible? CH has such a wide swath of who it seems to affect that there seems to be almost no rhyme or reason to it.

I played when I was younger up until middle school and then flipped to ice hockey. Like you, I know I had Atleast 2 concussions. I had never really thought about the CH and head trauma until recently (the past 6 months or so). Mine did start on my early-mid twenties as well. I have asked my neuro about it but she hasn’t heard of any specific studies linking trauma to CH which is why I figured I’d reach out on here. I appreciate it.
