Tammy, I'm taking Verapamil 560 mg/day and my blood pressure is on the low side too, but I never experienced other side effects than a slight constipation, easily countered by eating two dried prunes a day. If the fatigue is due to Verapamil, it will probably wear out in a few days. Anyway, if the Verapamil helps against your cluster, it's probably an acceptable trade off.
Mood swings are quite common for clusterheads. They are due to our messed up serotonin, but this is not affected at all by Verapamil.
PFNAD's,
