do you ever vorry you might not realise that you may have a brain hemorage because we are so often in pain?I myself have realised that I have difficulty identifying other pains. Pains I used to think of as unbareble seem nothing in comparison to CH. When dose one seak a GP for other aches or pains?

I wait until the pain is as bad as or worse than my cluster headache kip10 before I seek a trip to my dr or ER. I have had severe pain in my body 3x that was worse than ch and in other places as my body. I wait until it is that bad befor I seek help. All 3x I required surgery. The dr couldn't understand how I could be walking around as long as I had before I came in. I simple state the pain wasn't as bad as my ch. My dr got a great understanding of what my daily pain was like then and I never had problems getting meds for my ch. My ch is always on the right side in certain spots. If my ha were to go to another spot I would seek immediate help.

I've had CH for 33 years and also had a brain aneurysm burst 6 years ago. The brain hemmorhage was the "mother" of all headaches. It was an all-over crushing pain. Even for about 3 weeks after the surgery to repair it. My thoughts are that whenever something is "different", you should have it checked. Not just worse, but different. That's the safest way, IMHO.
