Ralph
not at all happry to hear of your malady
but from your post, it is VERY VERY obvious that your problem isn't even vaguely close to the disease known as Cluster Headache , as defined by the IHS diagnostic guidelines and the collective group experience of 100s of reporting/helping participants on this board
THAT MEANS -
this ISN'T the best place for you to find help
this board is about Cluster Headache- you don't have that - and the suggestions offered here for CH could very well be the WORST thing for you to try
and by the way - that "atypical" business is a giant MD copout - the diagnostic parameters for CH have been very well established for a long time
there are SEVERAL other maladies which share SOME of the CH symptoms, but are caused & helped by different agents
suggest you do some serious web searching & wish you luck
