  1. I also thought imitrex only made them worse till i tried the injections. Its the only thing ive ever found that would stop a cluster headache but when i first take the shot it magnifies the pain for the first 5 to 10 min. but then it goes away for a cpl hrs anyway. There is some problems with it tho. first off insurance wont pay but for a few each mo. i was getting upto 8 clusters per day. I was also being prescribed imitrex nasal (they only made it worse) but one day i got desperate and made injections from the spay using 5 cc of the spray with 40 cc of saline it worked just like the prescribed injections. Then new problem if i took to many shots in a day they stopped working and like the other forms of imitrex just made it worse. Before it quits working ill notice it taking longer to have its effect going from 5 to 10min. to 15 to 20 min. for me if it hasnt worked after 20min. it wasnt going to. But if i suffer through one without taking a shot it would make them start working again. Be warned they are very hard on the heart and your not to take more than 3 a day but during a cycle i do.
