Stumbled across your page, I can relate to your pain. I am a migraine sufferer and they only got worse with every physical change in my life, such as puberty, child birth, car accident. Started when I was 3. Once was told by a doctor in a migraine clinic that I was to healthy to suffer from migraines. daaaaaaa What did that have to do with it? Finally went to a specialist for the pain from my car accident and he told me I had MVP (mitra valve prolapse) heart thing. Often accompanied by central nerve disorder. Often the cause of migraines and other head pain. Said I would have to live with it. For your clusters try hot bath after taking meds while packing head and neck in ice. Fight for your rights to live a close to normal life with your doctor. They can be skimpy on meds. To bad we could not hand them the pain for a bit. I have tried all the non narcotic perscriptions with no luck. Pain killers have been my only relief.
