Does many Cluster Cycles act similar to this?

One of the great things about this site is the chance to ask questions to get a better understanding since one rarely if ever will meet  fellow Cluster sufferer so my question is this.
 
My headaches typically occur during the seasonal changes in Fall & Spring & I know this is common.However does anyone else get them similar to a head and shoulders shaped chart.
For instance.
 
First week:Shadows every 2 days or so.
 
2nd Week:Shadows,Mild short CH every 2 days or so maybe Two small kip 2-3 in one day towards the end of 2nd week.Maybe 1-2 baby night CH's.
 
3rd Week: Shadows,First Break through of like a 4,5,6
And the typical morning,evening and Late nite alarm clocks.
Maybe one Monster.
 
4th Week: 3-4 Headaches on the regular with increased intensity leading up to the Barrage of Kip 8-10's for about a week straight.
 
5th Week: See Week 3
 
6th Week: See Week 2  
 
7th -8th Week: Just one you think they are gone..one or two more for the road.
 
Finally have a drink again.

Yours sounds like an inverted V. My typical pattern is like the first half of yours, then it is a level plateau at high intensity for a few weeks, then it ends fairly quickly.

That sounds like my early cycles. I now start my prevent early on so I don't really know what the cycles are like! The advantage to having an effective prevent!!
 
And keep asking questions, it is an awesome collection of personal experience on this board. Then, eventually, try and get to a meet and greet, a big gathering or a convention. It's a waste of my time to try and explain the experience but it's like nothing else when you sit with 20 other cluster heads and just talk!!!!! Grin

Yup, that's precisely the pattern that my usual headache episode takes...
 
I only say usual because last year was odd...it got to week 3 with a couple of kip 5's, then mercifully skipped all the way to what you've labeled as "7th-8th week."
 
I've just started another 'sode.  I'm at week 2 now, and really hoping it takes the same path as last year's...wish I knew what did it last time.
