I still get Cluster headaches and I have not had a cigarette for over 32 years. Sometime the pain is so intense, that I feel, if someone would shoot me in the temple, it would do me a favor.

My current Doctor has giving me many kinds of drugs over the last 10 to 15 years. However the only one that really helps me is 'Sansert' 2MG. (I think the medical name might be - METHYSERGIDE MALEATE). My Doctor, like so many others, does not understand my CH and reluctantly will prescribe Sansert for me. It has worked well for me!

I can take Sanserts (1 or 2 per day) and after about 30+ tables, my headaches will disappear and I may not have another one for a couple years. They often reappear after a prolong cold. As a matter of fact, my headaches started about three nights ago, so I started taking some Sanserts that I had on hand and discovered the date on the bottle says 3/7/97, so that is over two years.

As I sit here writing this, my pill has relieved the intense pain that I had about 40 minutes ago. Right now I have a dull lightheaded feeling and am about to go to bed but such a feeling is so much better than the pain of a CH.

Hopefully, this might work for some of you!

Good Luck!
