Gamma Knife
Mar 2^nd, 2014 at 6:17pm

Hi I was wondering if anyone has tried Gamma Knife for cluster headaches and what the outcome of it was. I have been through every medicine for clusters and nothing is working. I have tried oxygen also lidocain nose drops Summavil Dose Pro shots trigeminal shots. 3 shots in the back of the head on both sides. Sphenopalatine nose block. Steriods magnesium through an Iv D.H.E. And many other medicines. The Gamma Knife is the last option for me at this point. I am also curious what is the worst thing that can happen if I do Gamma Knife. Also when they put the cage on your head and tighten down the 4 screws are you awake or can you ask to be put asleep. Thanks.

I personally would not try this. Nerve ablation in any type of procedure has not proven to be an effective treatment for cluster headaches. I wouldn't walk away - I'd run. Good Luck ! I4B
