I've had CHs for 10yrs & everytime has been pretty much typical but toward the end of the last episode I noticed that during the onset of the CH my nose felt like it was about to start bleeding & it progressed as the CH progressed until I my whole head felt like an over ripe tomato(was painless but weird). My CH awoke from the grave once again a couple of weeks ago I have yet to have a full blown CH(keeping my fingers crossed) but 2dys ago I had that nose bleed feeling again(never experienced this during CH down time & my normal blood pressure is on the low side). I don't think it is the medicine I did start using imitrex during the last episode but I'm currently out(because of cost I keep my med use low & fill prescriptions when I'm about to physically reomove 1/4 of my head). I'm just curious to know if anyone else has had that feeling in association with CH or if it's something totally unrealated. I'm scheduled to see my doc next week & will discuss this with him but in the mean time I am just curious.
