Stabbing pain on cluster side
Jul 14th, 2008 at 11:59am
 
Does anyone ever experience this?  I can be going along just minding my own business and OUCH!  out of the blue I get this pain in the eye, nose, cheek and  sometimes ear.  It's like a mini -hit that lasts 20 seconds.  Is it CH related?  It happens even when out of a cycle.

Thanks for the help!

Luv Ya!

I never experienced this and it doesn't sound like it is CH related, especially since it also occurs when out of cycle.

If these are frequent CPH and SUNCT come to mind.

As always: consult your neuro.

Yeah, I get those when I'm in cycle.  Walking along, and--berzapp!  Gets my attention, but I doubt that anyone else notices.  Some sort of spasm, probably.  More fun stuff associated with CH.

I see them most frequently near the end of a hit.  In fact, it's often a sign for me that the hit is going away.  One or more icicle stabs, and the hit subsides.  (Sometimes.)

Best,

George

Sounds like an "icepick" pain. These happen - hurt like the devil and then are gone. I don't think there's any rhyme or reason. Most of us experience them occasionally. Talk to your neuro about it.
