If you have experienced the absolute WORST pain that you can possibly ever imagine enduring and still living afterward, you could possibly have clusters! Check out the info. offered on this site to determine if you should research this further, unfortunately with your post, i'm not sure that the info. provided is thorough enough to say one way or the other wether these are cluster headaches.
The headaches generally follow a very distinct pattern - almost always one sided, intense, mind numbing, boring, incredible pain generally beginning at the eye or temporal area of the head. If i were you and you continue to get these headaches, consult a neurologist and try and get a diagnosis.
For your sake, i am praying for you that they are not clusters, but rather a different type of headache - and believe me - any other type of headache is an improvement over clusters!!!
Best of luck to you in your search for a reason - keep us updated on your prognosis/diagnosis!!
Be well and God Bless!
