Cluster Headache

Does anyone else here suffer with clusters?

I have been a severe hemiplegic migraine sufferer for the past 14 years but in recent months developed cluster headaches.

I've honestly never experienced anything so painful in my whole life Would love to hear from anyone in the same circumstances, it's a living nightmare and hard to find anyone who understands. People hear the word headache and just can't understand the severity level of it.

Give me a migraine any day over it, and they're hellish too which says something!

Apparently there is a form of treatment for them that is considered highly effective.

I'm not sure if you have researched into the various options though?

There is a product called Sinol M it seems to be based on the video below
It has mostly good reviews.

also on http://nutritionfacts.org/ Cluster headaches are one-sided headaches; there’s only pain on one side of the head. Those who rubbed capsaicin in the nostril on the opposite side of the head had nothing happen. They started out having around 40 attacks a day, and a month later the headaches were still going strong. Those that rubbed capsaicin in the nostril on the side of the head where the headaches were, cut the average number of attacks in half, and in fact half the patients were cured–the cluster headaches were gone completely. All in all, 80% responded, which is at least equal to if not better than all the current therapies out there.

I suggest you talk to your doctor before you try this.

Best of luck

My gosh I'm sorry for your pain. My mother in law had these and she took Sinol which helped. I'll ask her for more info on that and get back here soon. She also went for massages which helped, and she had her atlas aligned, which I think made them a lot less frequent.
