My brother has suffered from cluster headaches for the past 24 years. He is currently a patient of Dr. Frietag at Diamond Headache Clinic in Chicago, Il. Their address is 467 West Deming Place, Suite 500, Chicago, IL 60614. Their telephone number is 800-432-3224. Sometimes it is difficult to get through as people from all over the world go to this clinic for cluster headaches. The Doctor's at this clinic are also Cluster Headache patients themselves, so they know what the pain is like. My brother also has been suicidal several times because of the pain. We just returned from the clinic today for another appointment. With the right medicine and treatment you can get help, but there is no cure. However, the headaches will go away completely by the time you reach early fifty's. This is a very good clinic and I highly recommend you contact them. If you have any other questions, feel free to email me. Hope this helps.
