Gregg, My husband has had cluster headaches off and on for twenty years. I learned about Verapamil from this site, and a month ago when he started a new cycle he immediately started taking it (only 125mg). Since taking it, he has only had two headaches, both brought on by wine. We cannot believe that it is working! His cycles always last 2-3 months, with 3-7 headaches per 24-hour cycle. We always dreaded when these horrible headaches would return. He is headache-free for 3 weeks. We are so grateful for this medication. I wish that everyone would at least give it a try. Good luck.
