Hello fellow sufferors or should i say survivors.I am a 28 yr.old wife and mother of 2. I've been dealing with these agonizing headaches for about 3 yrs. They come 2-3 times a year and last about 2-3 weeks. The last time i had them was in October 00' I went to a ear,nose ,throat Dr. he thought i had allergies that triggered migraines he gave me claratin and nasonex spray and told me to take 3 tylenol when i get them , i thought it worked but now i know it didnt they just stopped till recently and they came back with a vengence!!! I went to a nuerologist he told me i had cluster headaches, he perscribed me imitrex..i chose tablets i was thrilled to get something to help and to have a clear diagnosis until i found out about the price of those boogers OMG i dont have insurance and ive been having them 2-3 times a day this time. Does anybody take something less expensive ..that helps??? I have to tell you how happy i was to find your site..its the first one i picked and it was so informative and it was so nice to know other people know how painful they r . i mean when i tell my husband i feel like taking a spoon and popping my eye out like a mellon baller you should see the look i got lol again thank you for the site i was starting to wonder if there was something terribly wrong in my head and i was going to die know i now it just feels that way!
