My headaches started after I suffered from a skull fracture. I thought they were migranes at first, my doc prescribed me percoset...it helped at first, but then became even worse. My husband called Dr Drew (the radio doc) who helped diagnose my headaches as cluster.
I have been smoking marijuana to relieve the pain. It actually works. With no bad side effects!! It releives the pain, the stomach aches (that sometimes occur as a result of the headaches), helps you get a good night sleep, and helps you relax...and get this...it works in 5 minutes.
There is one catch. You need to smoke in the first 5 minutes of onset. Unfortunatly smoking is illegal. But this little misterminer is worth it. It makes the pain go away...which as you know is just about priceless.
Give it a try.
