Narcotics could very well be giving you rebound headaches. You should try to get off of them and work with your doc on a preventative that may help *stop the headaches before they come *

I've taken fioricet for tension headaches.  I'd have to take a handfull of them to have any impact on a cluster.  Lots of doctors think that fioricet isn't worth the hassle because of it's lack of effectiveness and the rebounds you're having.
 
Go for the real ch treatments: triptans, verap, O2.
