I an trying a homeopathic doctor for other issues and he recommends sphenopalatine palatine ganglion injection for cluster headaches.  has anyone heard of, tried, or have a success  with this procedure?  I don't mind trying and will report what what happens. Very inexpensive.

I tried this last year, as my Pain Management Doc ALSO has CH - what are the odds of THAT?

Unfortunately, it worked for a short time, then seemed to agitate the nerve even more, and dragging the CH out for an extended brutal time.

Hope it works for you. We're all different, and so our bodies react differently to treatments. However, I have little faith in this treatment.

Best 2 things I have encountered is o2 at a high flow rate, and Busting. One of the latest would be the D3 regimen, as it has kept my current cycle extremely light.

Peace,

Living proof that busting can turn a chronic to episodic!

Live each day as if it were your last because one day, you will be right.

I wonder if that is why your doc ended up in the area of pain management as they will certainly know what real pain is and why it's important to be able to do something about it.
