Well, you know, we all react differently to different medications.
Have you got a doctor who is willing to write you a prescription for what you need in case you have to go to the emergency room?
A lot of people would rather get an Imitrex shot there if they benefit from Imitrex, etc.
Most people do not realize how hard it is for us clusterheads to get a good night's sleep.
I suppose that when we lose sleep due to CH we feel even worse with the next attack because we are worn out and discouraged and less able to tolerate the next one. If we could get refreshed a little somewhere during the cycle we might be better able (at least emotionally) to cope with the rest of it. But I do not know how this could be accomplished.
Please help us spread the word about CH to all, and I hope your CH will improve as time goes on.
