I've been a CH sufferer for 16 years, but have been pain free for the past 4 years. My CHs have returned and I am taking Cafergot, which helped slightly in the past. My next visit to the doctors (next week), I will ask about O2 and Imitrex. For now, I'm confused. I thought that Caffeine was not good for CH sufferers unless it was part of the medication (as in Cafergot). Therefore, I stopped my routine of drinking soda during the day. After reading several postings, it appears that some people are helped by coffee and soda. Can caffeine make CH worse?
