My husband has tried lots and lots of drugs. Currently his 4-5 clusters daily has been reduced to 0-1 daily and he's back at work. Since I am a nurse I was able to monitor his BP over the weekend of treatment in sitting, standing positions and he drank lots of fluids during the trial. His systolic BP remained between 104-119 all the day time and it really helped him sleep at night so he was able to skip the 2am cluster! He also is taking Prozac to reduce his sensitiveity to any stressful stimuli. I've got my husband back!
Don't give up.
