Re: Sure thing

Thanks for the support. I did it.

I went out at lunch and got an enema kit and went home. I made some coffee - 2 tbsp to one quart of water. Brewed it 10 mins then strained it. Added some ice until it was body temp. Then I went for it.

It took three attempts to get it all in and for each of the three I held it in for about 10 mins. I had a little glitch with the enema tip - it wouldn't stay screwed on so I took a little tp and wrapped the threads and then it stayed put. I didn't know quite what to expect but it really wasn't that hard or even any weirder than insterting a tampon.

I was worried about the coffee part as I cannot tolerate caffeine - sometimes can have green tea but that's about it. But I don't feel hopped up from it so I guess that's good. No change in my head pain though, yet (it's been all of 20 mins!)

The whole thing took me about an hour and a half, that's including going to the store.

I think I'm going to wait 4 weeks in between flushes this time, just to give my body some more time to recover. This has been pretty traumatic, this migraine. I have had them my whole life and never had to go to the doc for a shot.

Anyway, I'll let you know if it ever does go away. Thanks again!
