Subsequent cluster cycle switching sides????
Jul 16^th, 2008 at 2:46am

I just finished 10 weeks of misery on the left side. I thought i was in the clear since I had not had any headaches since last Friday on the left side (primary side). Tonight I'm woke up on the right side with a headache, aborted it with oxygen. Anyone out there ever had this happen? And if so, how long did you have a problem on the subsequent side/cycle?

wish i could tell you some good news, but i have been a "lefty" for 23 years. The pain has NEVER moved an inch in all those years. I have heard others here say the pain has shifted on them. Has it ever shifted on you before? It could be a rebound type hit from stopping or starting a med. Just a guess pal, wish i could be of more help. Good luck and God bless, Tuck

I have had clusters on my left side for 11 years, and on this current episode, mine began on my right side, and then shifted to the left. I thought it was nuts too, but my doctor said it was not uncommon for this to happen. However, I did notice to the switch when I stopped taking my Indomethicin for a couple of days because it upset my stomach, and then the demon came back full swing. Only now it was exactly like old times.

I will tell you that the clusters behind my right eye weren't nearly as bad as the ones behind my left. I don't know if it was due to a new area for pain to reside or what. I have had 1 and 1/2 to 2 day intervals between headaches now, and the month long agony is almost over. I hope you reach the end of yours soon!
