Hi, welcome to this wonderful site. I hope you gain as much support as I have. It also has provided me with a wealth of knowledge. I have had migraines for 12 years and now chronic clusters for almost a year. I understand the frustration of clusters being refractory to most of the medications ( we ALL understand!)
I just returned from the Mayo Clinic today...in search of some treatment options. There are no "magic" cures unfortunately but there are options. Make sure you find a supportive physician who will work through those options with you. Work can become a major obstacle at times...I haven't worked in 2 mos. and am anxious to find a way to return. Life is precious; even with clusters. Hang in there. Wishing you the best!
