I have both, but not at the same time.
Give me migraines any day.
As others have said, I can deal with migraines, but don't believe anyone can really deal with Cluster Attacks.
I denfinitely agree with one who said clusters are attacks, not headaches!
There was a time when I believed my clusters were migraines...simply because I didn't know what a migraine headache was...with a little education I learned that what I've always thought of as "just a headache" was actually a migraine.
My confusion rose from the fact that when my mom had migraines, she was usually in bed for about 3 days, and very sick. I didn't realize that not every migraine is that severe.
Any way...my neuro agreed that I do have both..but not at the same time. Hope that Never Happens!
