Thank you for responding frank! yes, we have taken many quizes like this one and he is in the cluster characteristics. we have had eegs, mris, neourology testing, heart monitors (he has passed out from the pain)you name it! i think we have done! he has them like 5 or more times a day since july, he says the pain is like having your fingers slammed in the car door!! does that sound familiar.. i dont know how to relate to him, he tells us he is tired of doctors and complaining!! and just plain tired! they dont wake him up at night and are always in his right temple area, sometimes down to his ear and then they go away. clusters seem to be the closest related condition i can discern... doctors are only eliminating the most horrible! thank you so much for listening, i feel like my hands are tied behind my back and i cant do a thing! he has tried to meds. he broke thru both! help me please help him! jacque
