I still work full time as a legal secretary. Before the oxygen I was on 11 pills a day for the headaches. I am down to 7 and still get 1-2 minor headaches. I used to compare them to elephants jumping on my eye -- now they are more like rabbits or hamsters. LOL I think women cope with pain better than men do anyway. I noticed that someone asked if I have children. I have a daughter who is 27 and teaches 1st grade. This will be her second year of teaching. When she was 22 she had an accident where she broke her pelvis in 9 places and ended up getting to the hospital with 1/2 pint of blood. Today she walks with no limp -- it just slowed her down on getting her teaching degree. I was just beginning treatment for my clusters when the accident occurred so it was loads of fun trying to concentrate on what doctors were saying when an elephant was jumping up and down on my eye. I sometimes get disgusted with my neurologist but I realize that I've come a long way. Maybe some day they will figure these out!
