in 1977 at the age of 22 i began to suffer with cluster headaches. the spells would last 2 months and occur about once every 18 months on average.
on may 3 1999 i suffered a near fatal massive heart attack. naturally i have been taking various medicines since the may 1999 episode.
previous to the attack my episodes were arriving every 12 to 15 months, i suffered my first cluster headache episode after the attack in oct 1999.
this spell was one of the WEAKEST spells i had suffered over the then 22 year history of my (periodic) illness.
the spell only lasted 3 weeks and exited much to my surprise sooner than the norm for the spell.
i was expecting to be struck again this past autumn.
it hasnt happened yet!!!!
essentially i have had only a few headaches in the 21 months post heart attack .only 1 of those attacks were brutal. the rest were ACTUALLY TOLERABLE.
whereas i am not suggesting a massive heart attack as the cure for cluster headaches I AM CONVINCED THE COMBINATIONS OF THE FOUR MEDICINES AND ONE ASPIRIN I
TAKE EVERY DAY ARE AN EFFECTIVE COMBATANT TO THESE ONLY-UNDERSTOOD -BY-US-THE-CLUSTER-HEADACHE-VICTIM.if you e-mail me i will tell you what i take so you can suggest the combinations to your doctor.
16 months pain free
