Hello all, I just wanted to say that this is my first time to this website and I have to thank all of you for helping me understand what my husband is going through.  I can only imagine the pain.  When I read a certain article about Cluster Headaches and how they are also know as Suicide headaches I just cried.  My husband can handle pain but these things bring him to tears and it kills me inside.  He was laid off from work last year before the headaches started up again and now he can't go back to work because they don't want to seem to go away.  They started a few years ago and we thought it was the heat that was causing them because when summer ended so did the headaches so we thought.  Then a few months ago they came back and worse then ever.  He may go a few days without one but when it happens the pain is so bad he can't sleep he can't do anything except remain still with ice on his head the once the pain is gone he is so exhausted that all he can do is sleep for an entire day.  We are waiting to be approved for health insurance before he goes for any testing so if just in case its more then these terrible headaches he will be insured if major surgery is needed.  I can only pray that he doesn't have a brain tumor or something like that but then again these headaches seem to be worse because Dr's do not know how to cure patients of them and there are so many different types of medications that I understand you may take several different ones before you find the one that MAY work for you.  Does anyone out there have any suggestions for me in regards to home made remedies?  Please let me know.  To be honest I was so relieved when I read so many posts from so many different people going thru the exact same thing as my husband because to be honest again with the headaches first starting a few years back when it was hot I actually thought he just didn't like his job since he was outside a lot to then happening again now when his unemployment is about to end and I thought that he just didn't want to go back to work but its neither he is going thru something very real and very painful and he is not the only one there are many of you and all I can say is that I hope a Dr. finds the answer to making the headaches go away very fast.  No one deserves to have to experience the pain you all feel when having an attack.  I believe in God and so my prayers include all of you.  Thanks for being there and sharing.
