When my clusters started again three weeks ago I managed to trick one headache away.
It started 2-3 kip scale. I got into the shower. Then I started to tell myself that the headache felt good. (i know, crazy, it was an experiment).
I started to tell my body "oh, that pain feels awesome, bring on some more. Within a minute or two it went away.
I thought I'd found my answer. The next one I had was a major 10. I ran crying to the doc as soon as I could. My little trick only worked once.
