Well, this cycle has been going on just about forever now... it's been at least 3 months and they show no sign of departing... in fact, they're worse than ever... I'm having them in the daytime alot. Usually, after this long into a cycle, they only come at night, and then they finally leave for good.
If it wasn't for my medical insurance, I would have been out on the street by now because I'm going through about $60 worth of Imitrex a day...
I'm 54 and I've had these since I was 27. Unfortunately, CH's have no respect or pity for us older people... I have the feeling I will be suffering with these until I die, even if I live to be 100 (which I have no wish to do, if I have to experience these god-awful HA's every year-and-a-half).
My empathy and sympathy to all my fellow clusterheads out there.
