Trent, I have been taking Melatonin for about three years. I take 3 mg. every morning at about 6:15 AM because that's the time when I get home from work. Melatonin I use to help me fall a sleep, but has never helped my clusters. When I get up in the afternoon the sun coming through my kitchen triggers one everytime. I am in cycle now and this is the frist time that my headaches have not gotten over a 4. My Dr. started me on Neurontin just before my cycle started and it has made a big difference to the pain I normally get. I still have some shadowing but I can live with them. There's one thing about all the meds we take, it may work this year but next year it may not and then we I have to find something new. I hope it keeps working for you! God bless and happy Holidays.
