Had episodic cluster headache from age 18-39. Back in the 1960s-90s. Doctors at first didn't know what it was. Finally diagnosed, verapamil, ergotamine no help. Prednisone could end the episode. Finally in the 90s oxygen could end an attack in 5 minutes. Doctors told me it would stop by the time I was 40. They were right. I am 72 now and the last episode was 32 years ago. I hear a cure in in development, a monthly shot. No pain like it. Have hope.

I had one typical cluster back in November of 2012, with my first-ever cluster headaches beginning and repeating about every other day throughout the month. The attacks always came at 7:00 p.m., 3:30 p.m. or around 3:00 a.m. (which would wake me up in the most terrible way imaginable). I got a headache while I was at work and one while sitting with my family at Thanksgiving dinner. I had no idea what was happening and I was SO grateful that my eyelid drooped and my right nostril ran during the attacks because otherwise I would have worried people thought I was completely insane given how I ran around and moaned and cried while grabbing my eye for 45 minutes. After that cluster, I waited for them to return. I never had another one, but I had about a half dozen standalone incidents that were less severe over the years that followed. I was seeing a neurologist at the time because I had been having MS-like symptoms of increasing severity. I had lots of neurological testing done, which ruled out any known cause of all my health problems for the time being before the cluster headache arrived in 11/2012. However, some anomalies had been noted, including abnormally brisk knee-jerk reflexes (5+ with clonus) and a blurry right optic nerve head. I went back to the neurologist to report the bizarre phenomenon and he immediately diagnosed it but told me nothing could be done about it. In 2014, I had similar, sudden attacks of vertigo that would set in with the same type of sudden onset, crescendo at the same rate as the cluster headache pain, last 45 minutes, and then similarly fade away and leave me so exhausted I had to sleep for hours afterward. This was diagnosed as Meniere's disease, along with hearing loss and tinnitus, and that was that. I also had one more bizarre phenomenon that presented with the same pattern: the bones in my arms would begin to ache and then suddenly become unbearably painful, as if my bones were being pulverized, and this would last-yep-for 45 minutes and then gradually fade away. No explanation for that. I have been struck all these years by the way all these disparate 'attacks' manifested in exactly the same pattern. In 2015, I was diagnosed with neurological Lyme and Bartonella infections. I was treated for many months with combined oral antibiotics and eventually almost all of my neurological pain, numbness and dysfunction stopped. However, I had other lingering problems that sometimes were extremely limiting. In 2016, I was diagnosed with mast cell activation syndrome. I suspect it may have been triggered by the long-undiagnosed infections doing something bizarre to my immune system, but whatever the cause of the MCAS, I now speculate that it is responsible for all those attacks-the cluster headaches, the vertigo and the bone pain-because the pattern of onset seems to mesh pretty well with the pattern of the onset and eventual resolution of anaphylaxis that I have had in reaction to high outdoor heat, exercise-induced heat, and aspirin and inbuprofen. All of those were factors during the years when I had no idea I had MCAS. I was taking a lot of hot baths because I didn't feel well enough to stand in the shower; I did my best to exercise as often as I could and kept going into anaphylaxis without recognizing it as that (I eventually stopped exercising because I was afraid I'd pass out at the gym.), and I had so much pain during those years that I was taking NSAIDs very frequently and I think these likely triggered anaphylaxis and other symptoms. I've been seeing a great allergist-immunologist for about two years, and his office has me on four antihistamines, an antileukotriene, and monthly injections of an immunomodulating monoclonal antibody, and I have been close to well for most of the past 16 months. If any researchers or clinicians who specialize in cluster headaches happen to read this, I'd humbly suggest that you look into a potential direct or indirect relationship between cluster headaches and mast cell degranulation, including assessing patients' tryptase serum levels, and consider treating them with H1 and H2 blockers for several months to determine whether this affects their cluster headaches. When I learned about cluster headaches, I assumed I would get them seasonally forever, and I'm so grateful that, so far, the only major cluster I ever had was during the month of November in 2012. I pray an effective treatment or cure is developed soon. I can't imagine living with those attacks for the rest of my life.

@DavidMichaelCommer8 ай бұрын
@@naomideleon8363 I saw over 15 specialists over about five years. Here's a list of what helped among them: Neurologists-The first ruled out ALS and MS and then basically told me all my problems were caused by anxiety. He told me to "take a nice long beach vacation or find a good counselor." (Really.) My second neurologist a year later ran a lot of tests and said that I had some 'worrisome' symptoms and some abnormal lab tests but that none of the tests added up to any specific diagnosis. So in the end he said he could not diagnose a specific illness yet but in time I may turn out to have MS or something. He said all he could do would be to treat my nerve pain, and I passed on that because I did not want to become dependent on opioid painkillers in my 30s. ENT/audiologist: My first diagnosis was Ménière's disease-hearing loss in my left ear and vertigo. Lyme specialist-This doctor was my real breakthrough. She is actually a family doctor but she treats a lot of Lyme disease patients because of where she works and family history; her nephew almost died as a teen from Lyme disease heart block. She was the breakthrough because she diverted from conventional medical practice and ran A LOT of blood tests-I think they took 16 vials of blood from me. Those tests identified Lyme and Bartonella infections and she treated me with three antibiotics concurrently. And I GOT BETTER. I took a long time but she cured all my severe neurological problems. I learned about mast cell activation syndrome while she was treating me and I asked her if I could have it. She was unfamiliar but read up on it and then ordered a blood test for my tryptase level. It was very high and she began to treat me for MCAS with mast cell stabilizers and I improved a bit. Allergist-immunologist: I found one of these specialists in 2020 who was very familiar with MCAS and he confirmed my MCAS diagnosis by also running A LOT of blood tests. He adjusted my treatment and I have been much better again. I have to go to his office every month for Xolair shots and they've improved my life a lot. Many doctors don't believe Lyme disease is real or can persist after short-term treatment, and so it's important to find a doctor who thinks differently than the standard if a patient has persisting Lyme disease. That is what took so long for me initially; I didn't know I had Lyme, and I had it for years and it infected my nervous system. Neurologists tend to treat nervous system symptoms but they tend not to look for infectious diseases as potential underlying causes. They are necessary for diagnosing autoimmune neurodegenerative diseases like MS and ALS but they are generally a waste of time if a patient has an underlying cause like Lyme, syphilis or another infectious disease that can cause neurodegeneration. Most doctors don't know anything at all about mast cell activation disorders yet. These disorders are relatively new to medical science, having been described only around 2016, and discoveries are still being made about how they function and how to treat them. So at this point, it's kind of a big experiment. As a result, there is also no one medical specialty that treats mast cell activation disorders. People who have mastocytosis tend to be treated by oncologists (cancer) because mastocytosis can evolve into blood cancer. Some hematologists (blood) also treat mastocytosis patients for this reason. Because they treat mastocytosis patients and the symptoms are the same for mast cell activation syndrome, even though the pathology is different, some (not many) hematologists and oncologists who treat mastocytosis patients also will treat mast cell activation syndrome. Mast cell activation syndrome is an immunological disorder and so some immunologists can diagnose and treat it but because it's still relatively new, it's not well known and many immunologists are not even aware of it and so they couldn't diagnose it. Some allergists treat it but usually they only treat the allergic symptoms of it rather than managing the underlying disease process. My allergist-immunologist understands it well but I think he is somewhat unusual in that regard, probably because he is on the board of various medical associations and he tends to stay on top of emerging science. Depending where a person lives, it may be very difficult to find a doctor who is competent with mast cell activation disorders because they are both "newly discovered" and diagnostic and treatment protocols are not well established and are still being figured out. Unfortunately, medical doctors have to know about hundreds of common and obscure illnesses and they can't know it all, and many get overwhelmed and are not motivated to stay on top of developing science.

I'm so sorry. I know how painful this is and how traumatizing it is. I think we all are here because we wanted to find answers for ourselves or loved ones because it is unbearable. I learned of a term that some people use when referring to them which is "suicide headaches" because according to them people who suffer from CH have an increased rate of suicide due to just how bad it is. I wish there were answers or that knowing more people feel this actually would help in the long run. Right now we don't have that, and unfortunately the most fortunate part of this which is that it isn't physically harmful or dangerous makes it something that a lot less money and resources go into researching CH. But there are people trying to do something about it. It might not happen as quickly as it would if CH were immediately potentially terminal, but it will come. Just like you do every time you get one, keep persevering because you are valuable to us and to the world in ways that you won't and can't know, and one day you will be able to cry those same tears of relief that we have been holding onto for so many years for the day that we will be free of these. I want to see "luc2dvision" commenting on the video or post or article that announces a curative treatment for CH. Stay strong, and I hope that since the time of this post your cluster has subsided and you have gone into remission for now.

I've had cluster headaches for about 40 years and at times it's been sheer hell. That said, a couple of years ago I was given a greater occipital nerve block (often referred to as a GON block or just a nerve block). What a life saver! I've not had any cluster headaches since. A GON block is an injection of local anaesthetic and steroid around the greater occipital nerve (GON), at the back of the head and top of the neck, designed to reduce the inflammation of tissue and relieve headache. It's literally changed my life as I was in a very bad way.

I've had clusters for the last 9 -10 years. ( chronic) My neurologist and I have tried virtually every preventive medication thats available. They work fine for a short time then quit. Once we get to max. Dosage we have to switch to something else. I average 2 to 5 a day starting around 10 pm. On a pain scale of one to 10, about 60% of the time they are a 9 to 10. The other 40% they are off the charts ( a 12 to 15) and have even caused symptoms of going into shock. The only thing that stops the pain is the sumatriptan injection, but you can't take it with every headache because of safety reasons plus insurance will only allow 9 doses a month. Ive already lost two jobs because of these headaches because i get no sleep at night and working nights when you get a ch is impossible. No one seems to understand how bad these are. Mine go all the way down my neck. So its like having a white hot poker stabing in my left eye, while having a major sinus infection while a dentist is drilling in my upper and lower jaw without novacain. If I were able to get a gun in my hand while having a 15, I hate to say it, but I think i would probably use it. I pray your research can come up with some answers because I can't go through the rest of my life like this.

I’m SO unbelievably sorry to hear this 💝 just know, you’re not alone. I too have cluster headaches, I’m in a cycle right now and just got done with one, it was from 4pm until about now still because I still feel residual cramping on the left side of my eye and head. These headaches are a leading cause of sui**de. Mine, just like yours, start at the very corner of my eye and branch out across the entire affected side of my head and it makes its way down into my neck. I have an oxygen tank which doesn’t help, I have Maxalt which can help, and Verapamil which helps out whenever it wants to- it did not help me this afternoon. I vomited quite a bit from the pain and I use an ice cold washcloth either directly on the affected eye or across both of my eyes and a heating pad on the highest setting for my neck. The thing about these though is that there’s no relief. I’ve got peppermint tea to drink and I’m snacking on saltine crackers trying to see if I can keep something down. Did you know cluster headaches only affect 1 out of every 1,000 people! Thank goodness they’re rare! My mom had them though and when we were kids she would pound her head against the walls while crying because of the intense amount of pain, I’ll never forget it. My doctor’s nurse once told me her school textbook likens cluster headaches to “bone crushing pain.” I replied, “well, you’re with someone who has a diagnosis of them, ask away if you have any questions!” I really hope you’re doing well. Please know, you’re not alone. Cluster headache sufferers are out there and we know exactly what you’re going through. We MUST continue to conquer them!!!

Broken bones, 3rd degree burns, but NOTHING compared to my cluster headaches. As an RN, on a scale of 1 to 10, the scale is ineffective in describing the level of pain. 5lpm O2 does nothing.

I believe I have cluster headaches as I was diagnosed by a Nerologist. I’m a person who has been more tired my entire life since a child and as long as I remember. Mine seem to go through different intensity as sometimes it hurts worse than other times and not as bad just more annoying. The intermittent shooting pains lately are only bothering me when I lay down at night as I’m trying to fall asleep. I feel like my over tiredness I’ve felt my entire life has something to do with these. My pain switches though. It’s either on the left side or right side causing a sharp shooting pain or stabbing pain or similar to a lightning bolt coming and going. I’ve also had 40ish-day headaches which were diagnosed as tension headaches and during those types the tension headaches the cluster headaches get way more intense. Anyways who knows. I’m hoping the shooting pains are my brain cells growing back (lol). The pains are seeming to lighten up so I’m hoping this is a phase of life I’m overcoming. What I’ve found to help break my cycles the most is a steroid in an IV or injection. I’m very sensitive to a lot of medications so this makes it so hard to deal with. I want to try oxygen or the device on the nerve but honestly I’m hoping and praying to God this is a phase of life that is going away forever. Sumatriptan oral or in the nose gives me horrible side effects too. I hate medications too so I’m just trying to stay calm and think positive, not let things get to me or get worked up. I’m hoping the less I stress the better I will get past this. These started in 2020 so I can’t help think it’s a covid symptom or the thought that covid and other things just stressed me out too much in life and caused all this to happen. I also avoid coffee because I feel like those trigger these two headaches. Lately excedrin is reliving the pain where it did not use to so like I said, I feel like it’s slowly going away and hopefully my brain is slowly healing or something like nerves are just healing or maybe dying 🤷 . I’ve been on ADHD meds since a young age and a little as an adult and I feel that has contributed to these. There’s so much I just wonder about with these and I don’t even have a definitive answer so I question a lot of things and just keep having hope and peace and try to stay as calm as a cucumber 😜

Off-course, its like building muscles, its takes persistent consistency, so be encouraged.

@@MrShredz313 This is an extremely dangerous post. Anyone who reads this statement about medical science being a scam please do your due diligence. Do your own research. Look for peer reviewed articles about treatments. Look into the "science" behind cupping. If you doubt in science then you don't know what science is. Science is literally just a method of finding out something that is more likely to be true without letting your bias affect your results. It is about questioning your own hypothesis and trying to break it over and over again until it no longer breaks, and then seeing what you have left. Then you submit that to a ton of other scientists who all want to tear you apart and find how wrong you are and say it in the meanest way possible as if not only were they trying to break your research but also your sense of self-esteem. Then you take in everything they say and if you still have your self-esteem in-tact enough you review your work and retest it or try to fill in the missing holes that were found and see if it still makes sense. Then you go through that process over and over again (known as the iterative process) until it finally qualifies to be published science. All these "the pandemic is a hoax, vaccines are a hoax, medicine is a hoax" people have no idea how any of this works. Seriously, 2.24 million people died from the rona and they still scream "hoax." Something is seriously wrong with them, and they are definitely not qualified to be making statements about medicine and science unless those statements are to say that they know nothing about that. Everything in medical science comes from what we have observed happening naturally and we isolate it to find out how and why it works so we can use these things globally in treatments. Aspirin? We observed the indigenous people of the Amazon drinking tea made with this bark any time they were in pain and saw that it helped them. So we isolated the compound found in the tree bark that actually did that and we started manufacturing it so the rest of the world could receive the help that these tribes were receiving simply from their local environment and called it aspirin. That's medicine. That's what is behind all of this. And the scientists make nothing. They do it solely to help people out because that's the reward that takes place of money. The only real money to be made is in the corporate world of medicine and science. So please, do not listen to people like this person (who literally calls himself evil already) and talk to doctors and use Google Scholar to do your research instead of regular Google where any idiot with a keyboard can make a post about something and pretend to have any idea of what they are talking about. Challenge yourself always and always seek the help of experts in their fields. You wouldn't have a massage therapist design and build the fuel injection system in the car that you use to take your children to school. You'd have it designed by expert engineers in combustion and thermodynamics and fluid dynamics and mechanics, and built by expert machinists and assembly workers. You'd do that because you want to be able to trust that your kid will make it to school alive without your vehicle exploding. So don't take your medical advice from someone who is not an expert in their field. The only advice laypeople are qualified to give on fields that aren't their expertise is that you should do quality research on something and talk to experts in these fields.

I'm 35. Was diagnosed with cluster migraines 8 years ago. But suffered with them since I was 6. I've been hospitalized 27 times and had my stomach pumped 8 times because I'd take 10-12 ibuprofen 800's in a day to try and get them to stop. I've gone as far as slamming my head into concrete walls. But 5 years ago finally got prescribed Prednisone 5mg (steroid) and it work amazing. But I'm now on a 30mg Prednisone only when I get them. I first got them on my left side. But about 10 years old they went to the right side and have stayed on that side. I get hot. Dizzy. Face swells. Loss of vision. Bloodshot watery eye. My headaches star randomly. Never the same time. And within 5 mins my are at full power and last hours. Hot makes it worse. Cold,light,dark all make them worse.I've had up to 5 a day. For weeks. Then boom nothing for a year. Summer winter fall spring. They come when they want. And their is no other medicine that even touches mine. Prednisone pill. is the only thing that works.

I'm so sorry you have had to go through this. 😢 I just added a long comment above that explains why I am asking, but have you tried taking antihistamines as a potential preventive measure? I have NO idea if it would work, but at least in my case, I was diagnosed with a mast cell activation disorder years after I had cluster headaches, and I suspect that the clusters were caused by anaphylaxis/allergic responses. I am terribly allergic to aspirin and ibuprofen now, which I was not when I was young, and they cause anaphylaxis, especially gastro distress. If you have tried everything else, consider discontinuing using aspirin and ibuprofen temporarily and taking only acetaminophen (not super high doses, obviously, as it is hard on your liver) for pain, and taking relatively high doses of multiple antihistamines daily. If there's any chance your clusters might be related to mast cell activation, then taking H1 blockers (Allegra, Claritin, Xyzal) in combination with an H2 blocker (famotidine) could possibly improve them. It's pure speculation on my part, but in my case, the cluster headaches seem to have been related to episodes I had of anaphylaxis for years before I knew I had a mast cell activation disorder. It may be worth trying if you have tried everything else. Good luck. I hope you get a reprieve soon.

I’ve just had pain on the left side of my eye intermittently all weekend. Just a sharp pain. All weekend. Came and went, came and went. Some times no pain, other times a 10. I didn’t want to pace; I just wanted to be in one spot. I did find it easy to fall asleep if I wanted to, but the pain was excruciating. No watery eyes, no runny nose. Went to a walk in and was told it was likely a migraine. Which makes sense after watching this because there really no restless. I just wanted to be still. The doctor gave me a pill and I’ve taken two today and the pain still shows up, but it’s nowhere near as intense. I dont know if what I experienced a cluster or a migraine but I don’t wish either or anyone.

My eye begins to water and then my left nostril is filled with mucus. My episodes start at the same time at like 10 am. It will last 4 to 5 hours then not re appear until 10am the next morning.

I am 42 years old now I started getting headaches in my early twenties. I would get some pretty severe ones where I was laid up for about 2 days vomiting and completely useless to the world. I wouldn't get them everyday but they were frequent enough to cause me a quality of life issue. It wasn't until I was 37 and I had blood work done where they found I was very sensitive to gluten. And for my entire life I would eat gluten like it was going out of style pizza cookies cereal Bagels bread pasta you name it I ate it didn't care because I didn't know I had a problem. Once I went gluten free I never had a headache again. Until about 2 years went by and I started getting headaches again and they came back with a vengeance. So now I'm taking nertech and using peppermint oil on my head but I tend to wake up with a cluster headache around my left eye every single day the intensity is nowhere near suicidal but it's enough to cause me problems every single day and sometimes they turn into migraines where I'm fried for two days straight and have to call out of work and cancel all plans and usually vomit

I really wish I had known when this aired. I have both cluster and migraines. A cluster headache ALWAYS leads to a migraine. I can get a migraine without getting a cluster. The cluster headaches suddenly started in the summer of 2013 - awakened by the worst pain in my life, felt like a spike being driving into my left temple. It is almost always (>90%) on my left eye, and that same eyelid droops. Currently with my 2nd neurologist (really like him) and trying Ajovy - it has decreased the severity of migraines, but not the frequency of either migraine or cluster (still get up around 2am 15-20 nights/months). Usually, 50mg sumatriptan (oral) with a "Goodys" will work, but leaves me exhausted the next day. When this COVID dies down, would love to talk with you. Will definitely discuss with my neurologist!

I find that I’m just literally utterly exhausted after a CH. I also have migraines. The med is the same Imatrex but I am not completely mind and body fatigued after a migraine, even though used Imatrex. ( I use 25mg oral for a migraine ) ( 6mg subcutaneous injection for a CH ) I think it is the actual CH that makes you exhausted rather then a side effect of a med. I know some meds can make you drowsy, but if you’re talking just ran a marathon can’t move don’t want to think exhausted. It may be a symptom of your CH. I have experience with a close family member who has Grand mal seizures and gets the same way. Just utterly fatigued. They have seen me after a CH and recognized it as the same fatigued. If I can push through it ( you should really rest but kids life ect) 15 mins or so I can feel my energy coming back. I don’t drink any caffeine but I heard that it can help with the CH itself and the fatigue felt after. Especially if you’re having your episodes 3-6 times a day and close together like mine. I know someone who uses Red Bull to help theirs but I would suggest a more healthy alternative like a strong cup of coffee or black tea, even a coke. Good luck ☺️

Started clusters in my 40s. I’m now almost 78. I go for years without clusters and then, like right now, I get a three to six week episode. But over years it’s changed. Originally I got the headache about one in the morning. It would wake me up night after night. I used sumatriptan injections for fastest relief. But they really physically drain me. Now I just tolerate the pain a few minutes longer and use the inhalers. Darned expensive even with insurance. I’ve found one alternative free treatment can help if I catch the headache when it’s just coming on. Feet in the bathtub in hottest water I can stand, with an ice pack wrapped around my neck. Wrapped around back and sides of neck.. 90% of the time the headache pain goes away and I almost immediately have the final drooping, tearing eye, and running nose. Don’t knock it, it works for me. But only if I catch the headache before the full blown pain starts. It’s less effective at that point. Oh, I’m now in a more scattered onset schedule, twice in the day time and once at night.

But just lately I've been experiencing one sided headaches which was so severe..it even wakes me from sleep. I thought it was just migraine just in different form. and I suffered from dizziness too everytime I have them. Just last week, I felt like the right side of my skull was being pierced with a knife...my right eye was so so painful i had tears coming out of it.... Yesterday I woke up dizzy so i just stayed in bed, as everytime I moved I wanted to throw up... then at about 9pm, those piercing pain on the right side began, then my right eye started to hurt, even my right cheek and temple were throbbing... I wanted to cry from the intense pain but i knew it wouldnt help... it lasted maybe 2 hours or more...

Long term effects are serious because of sleep deprivation . From trying all pills I also have cysts on liver. My Dad had them and died at 54 while having cluster. He had a stroke then heart attack.

I have both, TN and CH. The treatments for one do not work for the other and vice versa. TN affects more of the face complicating eating, drinking, cold temperatures and touch sensitivity to the affected area of the face/jaw. Cluster pain will always be behind one eye. Best of luck to you, these are tough conditions to manage.

Hi I am Lisa from the Philippines. I don’t know if this cluster or this regular migraine only. But it’s so disturbing almost everyday. I don’t know what to do with this. Is there any food that need to eat to minimize the pain? Or what food should I need to stop eating? Pls help me.
