Hello all,

A co-worker of mine turned me onto this site, I had no
idea how many people suffer from these things.
I have been getting cluster headaches since 1990, my
first year of college. I have had 6 episodes
of headaches since that time, I am currently on my 6th,
I thought after 2 years without a headache that they
were gone for good (wrong). There are only 2
correlations that I've been able to make in all of
these episodes-stress and alcohol. It kind of sucks
on the weekends when I want to have a beer but knowing
only one could bring one on, at least that's been my
experience. I am lucky in a way because I'm not
chronic and the number of headaches I get in a week has
dropped. Two weeks ago I had 4 in one day, but my most
recent headache was Saturday night (at a party). I am
really hoping that if I make it throught today and
tomorrow without a headache, that I am nearing the end
of this episode. That is the only way I can keep my
sanity, knowing that there it is temporary, for me
anyway. My mood normally isn't so mild when I talk
about these headaches, but I am hopeful. Stay well.
