My husband is a clusterhead and has had attacks every year or two (October)since his twenties (he is now 47). This time he seems really ill in between attacks in a way he never has before and I wondered if anyone knew anything about the effects of taking Zomig about three times a day for six weeks..he is also taking oxygen and paracetemol and codeine based pain killers. He smokes after an attack (he says it's like in the movies- you need a cigarette after you've been shot) but then he always has.His attacks have been less bad than ever before with only perhaps five or six in the upper regions of the Kip scale however he looks and feels like hell all the time and can't work or do anything whereas other times he has kept going more. We were having a very stressful time before the attacks began so stress could be a factor..any ideas anyone? This site has been such a comfort to us, thank you all. Sally
