I think I do understand what a Cluster Headache is. No, I don't physically know what it feels like. I never will and most people won't. It doesn't mean I don't understand the level of pain a Cluster Attack brings. I understand the level of pain from reading this board and living with a Cluster Headache sufferer. The best description of a Cluster Sufferer I've ever seen is the in the short story, titled "The Devil". Again, I may not physically feel the pain but I can understand the level of it. I know you have great respect for Dr. Goadsby, Drummer, so if you belive what you say is true how can he possibly make the statement that it is the worst pain a human can endure? How would he know? I believe he knows the same way I do, from speaking with Cluster sufferers and through his research. Like yours, this is just my opinion, could be wrong. But since we both know the wife is always right you may want to rethink your stance :)
