I was diagnosed with cluster headaches a little over a year ago. This pain is unlike anything I have ever experienced and is hard to put into words. The fact that it is considered a "headache" is simply not true. It is the embodiment of death toying with your brain, seeing how much pain you can tolerate until you finally say enough, and end your suffering yourself. This is where the term "suicide headache" comes into play. There are days/weeks where all the joy and happiness in my life has been drained due to nonstop excruciating pain. I am a chronic sufferer that only receives days of relief at a time. I often wonder and worry if this is what the rest of my life is going to entail, and that thought alone is enough to send me into a spiral of depression.

I think one of the most excruciating thing to happen while in a cycle are the understanding of work colleagues and employers. I’ve had the unfortunate experience of having to secretly record an incident of me having an attack while my boss storms in to complain. I quit that job but it still scares me to have to go through something like that again. No matter how much you try to explain it some people will always think it’s just a migraine

[@MSM4U2POM]

Snap. I have lost all but two jobs I have ever had because of this condition, because let's face it, who is going to emply someone who is off work for three months or so a year? You simply cannot function during a cluster episode, either during the attacks (for obvious reasons), or between them because you are so exhausted through lack of sleep. And your experience with people you work with is very familiar too. They just think you're a drama queen, and one boss actually said so to my face. It's depressing to think that such people exist, but unfortunately he was pretty typical of the kind of ignoramus you will find at the top of many businesses.

I have been a sufferer of these nasty headaches since the 90s. I saw a neurologist in the mid 2000s, and was diagnosed with Cluster Headaches. Most recently I went to a neurologist, and I just heard about the Hemicrania Continua. I have taken Relpax, Sumitriptan, and most other medicines outside over the counter medicines. What I have found that worked very well, is Fiorocet with codeine. I live in the east coast and the found out in 2014 that the crisp winter cold helped very well with the headaches. Combined with Fiorocet with codeine, my pain was gone within 30 minutes. I am well aware that doctors and or numerologist do not like to prescribe medicine with narcotics. But if I may implore what has worked for me, may not work with other people who may suffer from cluster or hemicrania

I used to suffer from cluster headaches in my mid 20's. It took me 2 years to find a doctor to help me. The injections stopped my pain, and Verapamil worked to stop the headaches from happening. Eventually, they stopped, after occurring every night, at about the same time, waking me from sleep. I am 55 now, and hope they never come back again! I feel for everyone suffering from this. And I am also glad, there are now many more new treatment options for this horrible condition.

That’s interesting about it stopping in your 50s. I feel fortunate to have finally gotten a diagnosis. I also feel fortunate to have survived it this long. They don’t call them suicide headaches for nothing. Hope you are still free from them and making up for all you probably missed out on during the first half of your life dealing with them.

Excellent set of specialists .. I had cluster headache attacks ( 9 or so) a couple of years ago, they were horrendous, the 1st one I had I thought I was having a stroke. the doctors, nurses, neurologist in London weren't that great, I don't think even cluster headaches were mentioned. It took me months of research and fact finding to figure it out. If they start again (they were episodic), around the orbits of the eye, down one half of the face etc. if they ever start again, I may fly out to the US and get a consultation with one / both of these seemingly excellent doctors.

I have an appointment with my doctor today and I'll beg him for an Imitrex prescription, even though It'll cost me $500 a shot. The pain is just too severe. During this last attack my mother asked me if she should call an ambulance. I told her to f!@$ off. Unacceptable. But she's very understanding and is watching videos like this to realize that the pain is so severe that it can turn you into a different person. Mr. Hyde.

[@karlaschmid]

Hey, how are you now? I’ve been suffering with these for 33 years and just finally got the diagnosis. I can identify with the ambulance comment. I’ve actually been taken out in an ambulance due to these headaches. The neurologist that just gave me the diagnosis is going to give me Botox injections to bathe the nerves in my neck and head. Also, he has ordered occipital nerve blocks. The pain has been so bad for me in the past, that I use a hammer and pound myself in the thigh to divert my attention away from the head and neck pain during one of these.

Two years ago I started looking into my frequent headaches and thought I probably had cluster headaches, so I started keeping a diary of them. Then after a couple of months the headaches became more and more, until now the past year I've had about 330 days of headaches, where the remaining days are primarily ones I simply slept through. I'm no stranger to headaches, I had a cyst in my head causing spinal fluid build-up about 6 years back. That is pure pain. All in all I've gone more than a decade with various kinds of headaches. Funny, I have this memory from when I was a kid asking my mother what headaches were like, wondering if I'd ever have any myself. Last month I read about Hemicrania Continua, and I certainly recognized myself in most of the symptoms, except that eye watering and rhinorrhea are more pronounced on the opposite side of my face, with occasional pain on that side as well, however that feels different from the more constant one that is on my right. At any rate, I just started taking Indomethacin today, so I'll know soon enough if it's HC or not. I only hope I can rid myself of headaches one of these days.

Also, with the Maxalt (Rizatriptan 10mg ODT), try cutting those tiny tablets into 4 pieces with a razor blade and only take one piece per attack. That 1/4 tablet always stopped my attack within 5 minutes, and if it works for you then you are just overdosing for one stupid headache when you could be treating 4 with each tablet, each day.

Hum I'm wondering now if I have the last 1 you explained here. I get sever headaches so bad I puke & can't do anything but cry. Then when it let's up, I keep a constant light headache. The bad attacks last me sometimes up to 7 to 8 days. No matter what I do or take nothing stops it till it goes away on it's own.

So I'm having headache directly above my eye only left side closer up to my hairline sometimes it radiates to the back of my head same side but mostly just a throbbing pain in that one spot..I sometimes will tap it hard because it annoys me so much. I wake up with it usually 5 am or 6am in the morning and it will occur sometimes in the evening after dinner ..If I take pain killers Advil gel with Tylenol with codeine or sometimes a 5mg oxycodone with Advil it will subside in about 30 40 min and it will often not bother me the rest of the day until the later evening. Its almost daily now and its been about 4 months occasionally I get a day without out. I do have dry eye syndrome I use eye drops to lubricate my eyes but I do find at night my eyes tear especially the eye on the side of the headache . I will sometimes have a stuffy nose only in the morning on that side but it quickly goes away as soon as I get up from bed. Otherwise no sinus trouble at all. I have never smoked and I don't drink any alcohol. Not sure if that is pertinent. I immediately wonder about tumours after becoming daily headaches...but then I saw the information about cluster and I wondered if that's possibly what it is... I've never been prone to headache before but my dad suffered with migraines all his life. My oldest son had migraine as a pre teen but grew out of it. Is it normal for cluster headache to go away when you take pain medication or Advil? Mine is very treatable if I take something but I hate taking it everyday. Thanks for any insight anyone has to offer.

I had cluster headaches for the last 20 years, and in the last 10 years I asked the doctor to give me prescription of oxygen and that’s the only thing what I use. I have oxygen tanks with me in the car and I use 10 L per minute. That’s how I get relief of the cluster headaches attack.

[@KellyChandley78]

What about those of us that suffer from CH that can not take verapammil due to abnormally low blood pressure? Is there another preventative (aside from Topamax) that works for CH?

[@drdj69]

doctors don't do free consultation online Kelly, don't be rude. go to your doctor.

[@Johninphxaz]

+Kelly Chandley I have that same issue. They went ahead and gave the verapamil at very high doses (usually), back in my 20s and 30s. My resting pulse would be down in the 40s and even 30s sometimes. They did a stress test, ekg's and so on, but my heart never stopped. I would get light-headed when I stood up, but that happened a lot anyway with my low BP. The verapamil would work for a while, then quit; so we'd have to switch to a new combo, usually with prednisone taper to help during transition to effective dose of new stuff. But often lots of uncontrolled time in between. Now that I'm in m 50s I can't tolerate a lot of meds including verapamil at high enough doses to help.

[@dannyfrailey4006]

They just came out with Emgality. It's the first FDA approved preventive med for Cluster Headaches. The people on Facebook CH support groups have reported pretty good results with it. I'll be taking it as soon as my pharmacy gets it in stock. Good luck.

Ok if i tell you my symptoms can you help me out pain in left eye runny red eye. runny nose. veryyy painful in the left eye moves around left side of head, neck, temple, top of head basically starts in left eye and pain is awful can last 30 mins to over an hour. Last night I had four attacks in one night! Absolutely terrible I am missing out on everything because I get no sleep at night because I get attacks early hours of the morning I can be asleep and it will wake me up with the pain. A couple of times I have been sick from the nausea of it. My heart starts beating funny and out of time (palpitations) the pain is unbearable and no pain killers work at all. I hold an ice pack to it which probably doesn't help but it gives me like 2% comfort from the pain. I have told my doctor it is cluster headaches because it seems exactly the same to that. I have suffered this before during fall time for two years now had about a 10 months free of it but it always seems to come back in end of august/september time. But all of a sudden it came back very very bad about a week and a half ago I thought I was having a stroke or was going to die and has been happening every night since. I cannot cope with it anymore. What are my best options to get my life back and stop this horrible pain? My doctors never give me the help I need and I have to get them to let me see a neurologist and mri scan to really see what is going on but they never take me serious and palm it off as tension or stress which it isn't because it doesn't matter if i am relaxed or stressed it still happens. Please help me

I learned so much, thank-you.

[@bodyrock5]

As I have learned more and more about cluster headaches and hemicrania continua. I was also wondering can the things that I have been through as a child, be a culprit to what is playing out today as an adult. As I will explain, my dad was not always a very nice person. Quite abusive and I was always getting slapped or punched in the face from a child to my early teens. And the reason why I mention this, is because I have seen talks discussing the Pituotary gland. But I am just curious as to what any triggers may be to ignite such pains in the head. When I do get my pains, it begins with a small throbbing pain, behind my left eye. And if I do not take something right away, it becomes an onslaught of piercing, throbbing pains which shoot down my tooth. I can become super uncomfortable, and in need of the cold. Cold floor or rag. I will not say that I get violent, but if I am bothered while I am in pain. That is not a good thing. I have to have like milk or something heavy in order to take the medication, if not. I will vomit and have hot and cold sweats. I have had the pains last for less than a week up to close to two months straight. Everyday almost like clock work if I did not take my meds. And when it comes, it's like any where between midnight to 4 am where I almost literally jump out of bed. Maybe this info maybe useful to your studies, I don't know. But what I do know, this s💯💯t hurts like most people wouldn't believe.

So what will happen if the patient suffering from hemicrania continue to be allergic to Indomethacin, and the next option is Melatonin? Isn't it Melatonin is used as a sleep aid? So does it mean the person with hemicrania continue will always be sleepy and unable to do their ADL? 🤔

Well, you guys got one thing wrong. Pituitary tumors are found in 20% of all autopsied leading me to believe that 20% of people have them whether they are symptomatic or not. I've had them removed 3 times. The gamma knife finally knocked it according to last year's MRI. Now 5 years after gamma knife, I'm having what seems to be cluster headaches. Could it be my pituitary acting up again? I don't know because I never had headaches even when I had a pituitary adenoma but I'm going to find out because this is misery.

[@farakhan7140]

Thmkyou so much for taking concern in me I really appreciate it I have already got oxegen tanks the hospital supplies me with them and I take sumutriiptan tablets but still very sick

[@Chow-Guy]

​@@farakhan7140 Fara, - first, I am not a doctor and nothing I suggest is intended to be taken as a doctors advice or as a treatment or cure for any malady. That said as required under US law, I am still working on a total discussion of what has helped me, but for now I want to know that you are using oxygen properly. I was initially prescribed oxygen but it was not what is needed. They gave me a small tank which only offered "supplemental" oxygen. In order for oxygen to work, you must be breathing pure oxygen and nothing but oxygen for the duration of an attack. You must have equipment that will allow you to breath pure oxygen straight from the tank and not allow any outside air. You must also start the oxygen as soon as you feel an attack coming on. For me, it kept the pain at the level it was at the time I started the oxygen. If I was already well into an attack and the pain level was already extreme, the oxygen did not help. If you just have equipment that adds oxygen to outside air as you breathe, it will NOT help. Also, with the sumatriptan, if it is not the type that you place under the tongue, which supplies an immediate dose as it dissolves, it will not work for cluster headache. I ended up getting Maxalt ODT 10 mg tablets. (ODT is "oral dissolving tablets") Rizatriptan is the generic form, and you place the tablets under the tongue where they dissolve and are quickly absorbed. They stopped my attacks within 5 minutes and I personally had no side effects. Now for warnings - Rizatriptan can have severe side effects, just like all of the triptan drugs. Knowing this, and also having used Zolmatriptan nasal sprays in the past, I was cautious. The Zolmatriptan did stop my headaches quickly but left me completely "wiped out" like a hangover for hours afterward. Rizatriptan did not have any hangover effect. But I never did take a whole tablet. The tablets are tiny, but on my first time using it I cut the tablet into 4 pieces with a razor blade and took only one small piece at a time. I then put the remaining pieces into an airtight plastic pill bottle for later use. I did occasionally have to use 2 or 3 pieces within a 24 hour period and never had any bad effects. My prescription for these says not to use more than 2 tablets in 24 hours. By cutting the tablets in 4 pieces, it would suggest that I could take up to 8 pieces in 24 hours, but I never needed more than 3. I will add - if you can get this product, read and consider all of the warnings, and I would not suggest that you use this or any other triptan without doctor supervision. Also, even the generic Rizatriptan is pretty expensive here in the US, but by having my doctor give me a prescription for the maximum allowed of 7 at a time, and then searching online for discounts, I was able to get the Rizatriptan for about 5 USD each. Then by using only 1/4 tablet at a time, it was really quite cheap. I pray that this will help you for now.
