My husband Michael has been chronic for many years (a clusterhead for about 12 years and they turned chronic about 5 or 6 years ago) and he gets these really sharp stabbing pains he calls zingers inbetween headaches - usually before the headache totally manifests itself, but lately he gets these zingers all the time. (As in, they have already started this morning, and they come sometimes every few minutes, but at least every half hour. They go away briefly right after he gets his headache, but then start again later the same day.) Does anyone else out there get these extra pains? Thanks, Kim
