On 19th of December 2001, I went into the local ER with an out of control cluster. I had been in a cluster bout since Valentine's Day. I had visited the ER and my neurologists multiple times with many different preventive and abortive meds given with no success.
I had read a study down by the New York Headache Clinic about magnesium IV drip aborting clusters. I asked the ER doc about trying it. We did and the next morning I woke up without a headache and it has not returned.
Please suggest to your doctors to look into further study, perhaps this treatment can help others. I have been over a month without a cluster headache. It is nothing short of amazing.
Thanks!
