Ive been in this cycle for going on 6 weeks now. dr has tried me on several meds. No luck so far, except for Imitrex...and this leads into my question?

I have had these CH's for 25 years now , and the 1st 19 i was on my own. My cycles would typically last 8 to 12 weeks and the duration was always ONLY 1 a day and they would ramp up to about 5 times a week at the peak. Thats my history , now here comes my question?

Since i started taking meds , i.e. Imitrex , verapamil , naladol , indocin , ergotamine , etc....seems my CH's are worse , i sometimes get 2 or 3 a day....it almost seems like my CH's are determined to get me regardless.

1 more question , I was going thru the CH today , and i was pressing into my right eye and i noticed extreme heat...so i went over to the other eye...No heat...whats up with that....is that a warning of possible inflammation?
