My doctor suggested to give this new medication a try. He said it is mainly for Migraines but it could help for Cluster headache as well. Also, has anyone tried Aimovig medication?

Is that normal for Cluster headache to be strong for 2 hours in the eye and then continue in mild form for another few hours more? Also is there any indication or a way to tell when cluster cycle is coming to an end? Headaches getting less powerful etc.

I am 36, my first headaches started when I was 14 or 15 it was mainly behind one eye lasting 30-40 min. Back then it would come once or twice a week and go away for a while. Then they started to come more often around when I was 18-20. By the age 25-30 the cluster cycle would start once a year regularly and last for 4 to 6 weeks with episodes once or twice per week.
