hello everyone, my boyfriend was recently diagnosed
with cluster headaches..he's had it for 3 weeks
and one time it became so unbearable that i took him
to the emergency room..they did a CAT scan on him
which turned out normal, they also did an EEG and again
it was normal..fortunately, my mom's friend is a
neuro and we went to see her..she clearly diagnosed
it as being a cluster headaches since he has all the
symptoms anyways.. she prescribed Verapamil and for
almost a week now, he hasnt had one headache since.
im very thankful that Verapamil does exist, please
give it a chance to work for you, i guess its different
with most people..dont give up on it..i dont also
see any long term problems associated with Verapamil..
