my husband has suffered through three episodes of head pain, which we thought were strokes coming on do to the facial tngling and severepain. on monday he was told they are cluster headaches. I am new to this so can you give me info on how I can help him. he is 33. they gave him a demerol shot, which he now says is killing his hip and leg and it has been 48 hours. they also sent him home with lortab for the pain and the dr. said that sometimes these can last for a month. HIs other ones were about 6 days. I would apprecate any info. we live in indianapolis, and I dont have a computer at home so I can only check my mail about 3 times per week. but i really want to help my husband through this.
