Doc's Cluster Headache Journal

Monday, October 15, 2007

Woke with a 1.5-2 headache. I was having bad nightmares that makes me think I may have slept through a long attack in the 2-ish range.

Annoying waves of pain back and forth all day and night.

  • It might be worth it to note that you had a beer while we were out last night... altho it didn't seem to affect you in a measurably worse way than normal. Interesting.

  • I would say it may increased the level of pain somewhat. Its hard to say, but the "ramp-up" I mentioned happened after the consumption.

    It may seem foolish to drink at all knowing that it adds to the likeliness that I will get a headache. but seeing as I have hardly had anything to drink over the last few years and that the headaches are nearly constant anyway... I decided to give in because I just wanted one.

  • I completely understand. If the headaches come regardless of whether you drink (just increasing the likelihood and intensity), you might as well take the risk every once in a while. i think sometimes it can be worth it. right?
