I was told to stop all caffeine consumption over 3 years ago by my doctor. I had some fiber cysts and the caffeine was irritating them. I quit cold turkey and went through about a week of hell. I had blinding headaches (not as bad as CH), the shakes, and was a complete bitch (more so than normal-LOL). After I was over the withdrawal, I have done fine without caffeine, but it has done absolutely nothing to stop my CH. By the way and I don't know if it matters, but I was not in a cycle when I quit using caffeine.
