Hello Bob, welcome to this board You can find lots of information and suport here.
Your doctor doesn't seem to know too much about cluster headaches.
The Imigran limitation is usually a financial matter, originating with the insurance companies (not too much expensive stuff, please) Your doc might have told you that, though. The Imitrex restriction seems to be based on migraine patterns and migraine treatment.
I would advise you to check out all the info under the buttons on the top left of the Message Board, print it out and take it along to your doctor.
If s/he can't cope with that, find yourself another. Phone up first and ask about their experience with CH.
Don't give up!
