Hello,
It has been a long time since I posted. Yes my cluster headaches are still with me, and it has been over a year now. Lately they have been worse, some because of the changing weather patterns, some maybe from the stress of my divorce. Anyway for any of my old friends who would care to write, I would appreciate it.
I was given topamax to take, but after taking the first 2 pills, I slept til 6pm the next night and was so out of it, I can't do that being all alone.
These damm headaches are back to waking me up in the night, day and night, I am sick of them. Depression is creeping in big time now, and with everything else in my life, I am ready to give up. My neuro doesn't want me taking my imitrex which is the only thing that has ever helped me because of the results of my last MRI. But I have to, so now I risk a stroke from those pills. I do the water, and O2, but only the imitrex helps and sometimes, it doesn't help me.
Will there ever be an end to these??????????????
