Since you didn't mention any treatments, wonder if you are using any of the news meds to abort an attack? There are some very effective drugs out there both to abort an attack and to reduce the frequency/severity of attacks.
Your description sounds like classic cluster and so you're in the right ballpark for help.
Suggest you look down this page to my message, "Some sources of help" and explore the material there. Especially, go to www.headachedrugs.com and look for "headache medications-2000"; scroll down to the section on cluster. The doctor who runs this site also has a new book which is noted in my message. It's excellent and worth your money.
