Hello from Houston
Apr 6th, 2016 at 1:09am
 
First off id like to say hello to everyone. I am a long time sufferer. My CH's started when I was very young, the earliest I can remember is at 10 years old. Ive pretty much lived with them my whole life until about 4 years ago. I recently turned 40 and they decided to come back with a vengance so I am once again back in the fight. I have gone though a few treatments including an SPG block that didnt work. I ambworking with a great Neurologist here is Houston so my hopes are high. Anyway thats me saying hello and giving a little background.

Hello NerfHerder,

You're very welcome here. Lots of experience and support to be had, so post anytime.

Can you tell us what treatment you are receiving, Meds, Oxygen etc ? We may be able to make a few suggestions.

There is always someone here.

Best regards,

Peter.

As a group, neurologists have limited, even meager education with headaches.

I'd ask about his experience, even though you have a relationsip with him now.

Giving us a list of the treatments he has used with you  will give some idea of how skilled he is with Cluster.

Print the PDF file, below. Doesn't cover everything used for Cluster, but a good overliew. Some of these items whold be familiar to you.
