Cris, My husband is a cluster sufferer and has made numerous visits to the ER. Best bet right now is for your husband to see a neurologist to get a CH diagnosis and proper treatment. Print out some of the info here to take with you to the doctor. Something like Verapamil is a good preventative and to help abort attacks, a drug like Imitrex is quite effective. Oxygen and ice packs (heat for some people) are also very helpful. Good luck--feel free to e-mail me by clicking on my name in blue. Joy
