I'm not sure mine is a cluster, i've been told it was a migraine but everyone i talk to that has migrains can still think. It starts off like when u look at a light for a long time and then look at the wall can still see the trail of light as u move you'r eyes (this is why they think its a migraine) but after that my blood pressure starts dropping i can't talk, think,read or ne thing but they dont happen everyday or even month just randomly, but if anyone else has anything close to this i would greatly appreciate any feedback i can get cause none of the doctors know. i end up in the emergency room everytime with a shot of something that knocks me out for 2 days then it's fine till the next time i have to do it all over again.

One of these might be what you want to look into.
Basilar Migraine
When migraine affects the circulation in back of the brain or neck, it can cause Basilar Migraine or Bickerstaff's Syndrome. It occurs most frequently in young women. Dizziness, double vision, loss of balance, confusion, slurred speech, fainting and disorientation can occur. During the acute headache, some lose consciousness. Often these patients are mistakenly thought to be intoxicated, under the influence of drugs, or suffering from other conditions. A previous history of migraine is helpful in making the diagnosis.
[b]Hemiplegic Migraine [/b]
A very rare form of migraine which is considered to be one of the more severe types of migraine. The sufferer may develop some temporary motor paralysis and/or sensory disturbances on one side of the body, immediately followed by the headache. This may be accompanied by numbness or a pins-and-needles sensation. The neurological symptoms usually leave when the headache appears.
With hemiplegic migraine, there is often a familial occurrence. A physician should be consulted for this type of headache.
Look into them. It doesn't sound as though you have clusters with the pattern you discribe.
