Hi, My name is Rachel. I myself suffer from cluster headaches and I know firsthad how it utterly SUCKS!  Embarrassed But your on the right path! You DO need to see a neurologist! Thats what me and my mom did, they gave me a steroids shot and some steriod pills to take for a week 7 the first day 6 the next then 5, and so on, and a bottle to take once every day for a month, I noticed results immediatly! And it turns out the the part of the brain that can [or can not] be affected by clusters is connected somehow to your 'biological clock', cluster headaches are most prominent durring the daylight savings times, spring and fall. so when you do get treatment you might need to go back in 6 months for another. kind of sad but I got treatment last fall and its coming up to spring and anxiety is slowly setting in. But I really do hope this helps! the steroid shot and the pills were what did it for me  Smiley  so good luck and I really hope that I gave you some insight! [sorry for any spelling errors.]
