Since you didn't mention any medical treatment, I'm assuming that you have not seen a headache doc for a work-up leading to the diagnosis of Cluster.

Because there are a number of non-headche conditions which mimic Cluster AND since most docs lack the training and skill to help much in this area, I'd strongly sugget you find a headache specialist for a Dx and ongoing treatment.

LOCATING HEADACHE SPECIALIST

1. Yellow Pages phone book: look for "Headache Clinics" in the M.D. section and look under "neurologist" where some docs will list speciality areas of practice.

2.  Call your hospital/medical center. They often have an office to assist in finding a physician. You may have to ask for the social worker/patient advocate.

3. Multimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!!  You need to or ; On-line screen to find a physician.

4. Multimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!!  You need to or Look for "Physician Finder" search box. They will send a list of M.D.s for your state.I suggest using this source for several reasons: first, we have read several messages from people who, even seeing neurologists, are unhappy with the quality of care and ATTITUDES they have encountered; second, the clinical director of the Jefferson (Philadelphia) Headache Clinic said, in late 1999, that upwards of 40%+ of U.S. doctors have poor training in treating headache and/or hold attitudes about headache ("hysterical female disorder") which block them from sympathetic and effective work with the patient; third, it's necessary to find a doctor who has experience, skill, and a set of attitudes which give hope of success. This is the best method I know of to find such a physician.

5. Multimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!!  You need to or NEW certification program for "Headache Medicine" by the United Council for Neurologic Subspecialties, an independent, non-profit, professional medical organization.
        Since this is a new program, the initial listing is limited and so it should be checked each time you have an interest in locating a headache doctor.

Because your attacks have been irregular and short lived, I'd not assume you are experiencing Cluster. So, before you start trying any of the self-help suggestions you'll receive here, it's important to know what you are dealing with.

Leroux E, Ducros A.

ABSTRACT: Cluster headache (CH) is a primary headache disease characterized by recurrent short-lasting attacks (15 to 180 minutes) of excruciating unilateral periorbital pain accompanied by ipsilateral autonomic signs (lacrimation, nasal congestion, ptosis, miosis, lid edema, redness of the eye). It affects young adults, predominantly males. Prevalence is estimated at 0.5-1.0/1,000. CH has a circannual and circadian periodicity, attacks being clustered (hence the name) in bouts that can occur during specific months of the year. ALCOHOL IS THE ONLY DIETARY TRIGGER OF CH, STRONG ODORS (MAINLY SOLVENTS AND CIGARETTE SMOKE) AND NAPPING MAY ALSO TRIGGER CH ATTACKS. During bouts, attacks may happen at precise hours, especially during the night. During the attacks, patients tend to be restless. CH may be episodic or chronic, depending on the presence of remission periods. CH IS ASSOCIATED WITH TRIGEMINOVASCULAR ACTIVATION AND NEUROENDOCRINE AND VEGETATIVE DISTURBANCES, HOWEVER, THE PRECISE CAUSATIVE MECHANISMS REMAIN UNKNOWN. Involvement of the hypothalamus (a structure regulating endocrine function and sleep-wake rhythms) has been confirmed, explaining, at least in part, the cyclic aspects of CH. The disease is familial in about 10% of cases. Genetic factors play a role in CH susceptibility, and a causative role has been suggested for the hypocretin receptor gene. Diagnosis is clinical. Differential diagnoses include other primary headache diseases such as migraine, paroxysmal hemicrania and SUNCT syndrome. At present, there is no curative treatment. There are efficient treatments to shorten the painful attacks (acute treatments) and to reduce the number of daily attacks (prophylactic treatments). Acute treatment is based on subcutaneous administration of sumatriptan and high-flow oxygen. Verapamil, lithium, methysergide, prednisone, greater occipital nerve blocks and topiramate may be used for prophylaxis. In refractory cases, deep-brain stimulation of the hypothalamus and greater occipital nerve stimulators have been tried in experimental settings.THE DISEASE COURSE OVER A LIFETIME IS UNPREDICTABLE. Some patients have only one period of attacks, while in others the disease evolves from episodic to chronic form.

also, my previous 2 attacks occurred in the fall and this one in the spring, alcohol will trigger a severe attack for me(which has helped me quit drinking) I had also read magnesium may help and had started taking that and shortly after is when the headaches started skipping days so I think it has been helping. The pain is always on my left side just above my eye, my left sinus feels like it's burning, my left eye will pour tears during an attack and the gums on my left side where my wisdom tooth had been gets swollen. sometimes pressing my hand to my forehead above my eye will dull the pain for a short time too.

G'day Nikki,
Sorry you had to find us,and unable to get medical attention. I'ts lucky for us here down under that we
have doc's that bulk bill, in other words i'ts free to see
a doctor, and go into hospital if your ill.There have been
studies to determine wether or not CH's are hereditary
but has proved inconclusive thus far.Have you tried
taking Melatonin for your night attacks, you can buy
it OTC when you pick up the D3 Regime.

Good Luck, Hoppy.

I do find that being outside helps and drinking coffee, unfortunately melatonin isn't an option at the time due to nursing my baby(which also would cancel out some of the other options) but I'm sure by the next episode I'll be done nursing and could try it. I'm honestly just grateful to of found a support group for this and I thank you all for your suggestions.
