Well, you would be! I can imagine. My first time I thought I had an aneurism (pain started in my temple) and if it wasn't then a tumor. I was going to die. Obviously I didn't. It was "just" cluster headaches.
You are very lucky to have a doctor who's on the ball. Cherish her/him. And if it indeed proves to be CH, I know its is horrible, I know it is painful, but you can live with them. Some people here have, for 25 years, and can still crack jokes.
Remember this board is here for clusterheaders, a shoulder to cry on or a place to stamp your feet and waive your fists in anger.
Good luck at the doc's!
