When do Ch attacks become predictable?
Perhaps I've been timing them on and off all along, as I remember atleast knowing that my attacks came on the hour and usually stepped down on the hour. But until now I've never been able to know what day or time to expect an attack(doesn't that sound shitty?).
Lately my attacks have come on Wednesday,Saturday and Sunday, at least the most severe ones. Saturdays usually by 1pm, Sundays by 8am and wednesdays between 6 and 8pm. I've also had Thursday attacks which come between 5pm and 9pm.
Whats interesting about this is that these times tend to coincide with a period either two hours past, or prior to sunrise and sunset. All other attacks come at around 3pm particularly when there's a thunderstorm.

some time ago I saw a report on channel 11 news about a new laser treatment for chronic headache sufferers. One of the news anchors was a headache sufferer and complained that her attacks were triggered by the least whiff of wine. The doctor who was noted to have been administering the treatment claimed that there was something going on with the muscles of the cheek and jaw, and that a cold laser applied to this area did something to quell the headaches. It was never mentioned what kind of headaches the treatment had been used successfully on, but the jaw mention made me swear they were talking about clusters.
Has anyone else heard anything about any laser treatments for cluster or other types of severe headaches?
