When you husband went for the sleep study, was he
in a cluster cycle? My sleep has become terrible
because of waking up with clusters all the time.
Essentially, the clusters have taught me how not
to sleep. Sort of like behavior mod. I have never
heard of "fragmented sleep" as a diagnosis. But
to begin to get decent sleep in a cluster episode,
I have to be on a good preventive medication, like
Prednisone or Verapamil. That cuts down on the
frequency of the headaches. If I wake up in the
middle of the night, I take an Excedrin pm or
Tylenol pm, to help me sleep.
