Barbara A., Am I understanding right that this is your FIRST cluster? And you've been in the cycle 15 days?
If so, although everyone reacts differently, you've probably got a month or so to still go. Hope the predisone worked to stop it, but if you follow the course of most of us these damn things last 1 1/2 - 3 months at a time if you're episodic. I know that's not very encouraging, but look at the bright side. If you were chronic, there really wouldn't be an end in sight!
Call your neuro. He may want to start you back on the predisone or on something else to break the cycle.
Hope this will be a short one for you. Remember, us "vintage" clusterheads are here for you.
