Does anybody know what is cluster tic syndrome?
My friend was saying I could be having this syndrome. Currently I've been diagnosed for cluster headache.   

Hi Winner.
Frankly I am not sure if there is an association with CH and cluster tic syndrome. Or for that matter not clear of what tic syndrome is. thought I would weigh in that some feel they are unrelated and that cluster tic syndrome is a brief stabbing pain to the temple. I have always associated that to "shadows" and feel them when I am in a CH cycle. There are others who could offer more insight, but  you can do some research. at the top of the page you can type in Cluster Tic Syndrome for more information. another thought would be to reach out to the professional who diagnosed your CH.

I dug around several books and a major medical library on  your question and was surprised--nothing! This citation was the only entry. Suggests  that it's an issue which has never gained any attention.

VII. Other Questionably Related Conditions
A. Cluster Tic Syndrome
The cluster tic ndrome features the primary symptoms ol cluster headache but withe added component of stabbing, ice~ pick neuralgic-like components involving the eye, face, and jaw~ The syndrome is found in 10—20% of patients but is often undiagnosed. True trigeminal neuralgia may coexist with clustei headache.

Alberca and Ochoa (1994) reviewed 37 reported cases of cluster tic syndrome. They noted equal gender representation and found that trigeminal neuralgia usually appeared first. Somc attacks appeared to blend both neuralgia and cluster headachc symptomatology and could be triggered by touching of the uppel lip on the ipsilateral side. Medical treatment was often not effec. tive, although a combination of cluster headache therapy with that for trigeminal neuralgia was sometimes useful.
Several antineuralgic agents are available. These include car~ bamazepine, phenytoin, baclofen valproate, and clonazepam~ Most recently, gabapentin has shown promising results in neuro pathic pain disorders. As for surgical interventions, suboccipit~ surgery (Solomon, 1985) revealed compression of the trigemina nerve by aberrant vasculature, and following treatment, the neu~ ralgic component resolved.
     

If the cluster tic is trigeminal neuralgia, here some info. Actually it is from an advertisement that appears here at CH.com.
