Hi Dave, I had accupuncture for my clusters in December 98 - wow - success. However, I must qualify this - I'm not sure whether or not I was coming to the end of my bout, still using Verapamil etc. However, there was a very definite improvement. I did post on messdage board around 25 December re this, so go into the archives for background. My accupuncturist was very clear that he could treat me for the cluster and he did. I can't offer much help re the site but mine stcuk a needle in the point on the top of my head where I get the pain. I had three treatments and the improvement was great. I am sure it won't work for everyone, but my advice is...suck it and see. I shall be seeing my accupunctrist again, probably around the end of the month, so shall ask him if he will share his information. I'll post on message board if he does. Meanwhile, wishing you success and pain free.........go with care.......maggie
