lbw,
hang in there and we will be there with you during the hard times. I have had ha for over 7 years but just recently was diagnosed as CH and I'm female also.
I just found this CH site a few weeks ago and the support here is wonderful with lots of very compassionate and understanding fellow CH'ers and their supporters.
keep in touch with us,
Renee

23 years of battling the beast, 9 years chronic......uneducated docs/nurses make me irate.
The fungus among us is for real!

Verapamil, Imitrex and O2 help me keep CH under some semblance of control.
Another thing that seems to help. I keep a couple of bags of frozen peas. When an attack is hitting me, I slap one upside my head and massage it with te bag of peas. The cold seems to help and the massaging action of all those cold peas help. I know it sounds silly, but for me it works a bit.
I also avoid Michelle as she is all too willing to slap me upside the head.
I hope this turns out to something besides CH. If it is, Welcome to hell. Grab an oar. We'll get through this somehow.

Hello and I'm sorry to say..welcome! To ease your mind, my neurologist told me not more than 2 weeks ago, that women now make up 40 % of the clusterhead population! So tell your Doc she's full of .....
I hope you find relief real soon and stick around. The people here are very very helpful...and don't let Jonny scare you off...his bark is worse than his bite! hehe
