Title: Clusterhead and heartattack
Post by Svenn on May 20^th, 2002, 4:59pm

My story is:I was diagnosed as cronical clusterhead for some 24months,before that periodic.I got a heartattack last november,and since that i have only been hit 5 times wery easy.
My neuro cant explain that for me,so i just wonder if some of you have some theory or experience on that.
PS/ I DO NOT RECOMMEND HEARTACK FOR TREATMENT :)
Im using verapamil both for my head and heart.

Svenn, this would be difficult to research but I do remember that people have posted to say they were PF for some time after for instance pregnancy, operations, general anesthetics and I think heavy illnesses.

A very very tentative try at a theory might be that these ocurrences shake up your system - like the shrooms are supposed to do. Apart from pregancies of course - there one must think of hormone changes.

And let's not forget that other people have posted in reply that operations etc. did not change anything for them, clusterwise.
Or that their clusters even seemed to worsen.

You can say what you like about clusters... well, see my sign-off
