Found your site a week ago and realised that the migraines were really clusters.
Went to the GP and managed to get some Ergotamine. What a relief. It took about 4 days of one tab per day to calm them down. I fancied a beer on Saturday and within about 90 minutes of drinking I had one of the worst headaches ever.
I find that drinking plenty of water throughout the day seems to assist.
When I have a cluster bout I find that reducing my body temperature rapidly also seems to give relief.
I`d rather not have one, like the rest of you, and pray for a peaceful night every night.
