Hi I was wondering if anyone has tried Gamma Knife for cluster headaches and what the outcome of it was. I have been through every medicine for clusters and nothing is working. I have tried oxygen also lidocain nose drops Summavil Dose Pro shots trigeminal shots. 3 shots in the back of the head on both sides. Sphenopalatine nose block. Steriods magnesium through an Iv D.H.E. And many other medicines. The Gamma Knife is the last option for me at this point. I am also curious what is the worst thing that can happen if I do Gamma Knife. Also when they put the cage on your head and tighten down the 4 screws are you awake or can you ask to be put asleep. Thanks.

For what it's worth, I've heard the same as BobG. I can understand the desperation but perhaps this route is really no solution at all. blessings. lance
