Two sites which provide general medical information, including, CH. Of the two, the Mayo site has a series of brief, introductory level, articles on CH suitable for someone just beginning to deal.
www.mayohealth.org (then search under "cluster headache".)
Johns Hopkins worth exploring: www.intelihealth.com
My favorite medical site is directed at professionals but is quite accessible to someone with knowledge of medical terminology and concepts. It's free but requires an initial registration. Material is grouped by a number of medical specialities and has an enormous range of useful links.
Two articles are worth printing out to give to your doc if you need to "educate" them; the value being this is literature from their peers. At the bottom of the page, use the search box, enter "cluster headache" and select "article" in the boxes below. The two best articles are, "diagnosing headache" and "treating headache."
