Traci,
I just began a new cycle (but these are the mildest I have ever had)and the first thing that I noticed was that I wasn't having REM sleep. I get my nighttime CH's at the begining of REM sleep. I think that over the years my body has learned that and has started avoiding that painful portion of sleep during cluster episodes. I began taking Caclium Channel Blockers again and have once again been experiencing restful sleep (and lots of good dreams) even though I am still having headaches.
Perhaps your husband has developed the same safety mechanism. I pray that he can find a benign solution as I have.
