Have you tried Verapamil? Side effects of Prednisone have gotten
pretty bad for me (stomach problems). The Verapamil has me down to
about one bad one every couple or few days. Of course avoid any
alcohol. Oxygen is mentioned a lot here, and I've found it to abort
as many headaches as not. Caffergot seems to work almost every time
for me, if taken immediately upon cluster attack twinge. Some have
mentioned using Melatonin in the evening to help with sleep. It is
available over the counter, health food stores, wherever. Best of
luck to you and keep praying. I've found even at my most desperate
moments, that an honest prayer will bring some acknowledgement from
above. Rich
