23 years later and I am still self diagnosed. These jokers have no way to tell except to listen to the patients words.

Hi I’m new. Not firmly diagnosed by my neurologist yet (says he’s not convinced) but I and an ER doctor suspect cluster. Mine have always been side locked to the right side today I was woken up with one of the worst ones I’ve ever had on my right side with poker like eye pain and Lots of Tearing and red eye. It subsided within 30 minutes and I was able to go back to sleep Then about two hours later woke up with my left eye just mildly irritated and watering and puffy. I’ve never noticed both sides affected before, although I didn’t have severe pain on the left more irritated . Does this happen to others? Thanks
Sure sounds like CH

I never hallucinate regardless of the dose or if it's shrooms or LSD. I did a couple times about 25 years ago and then it was over.

....just wanna throw in for those contemplating welding O2 and coming across this thread in future.....NEVER tell them you gonna breathe it or you are gonna have to find a new shop....
....and i have to say...i am totally shocked they would ship a full tank ($125...yikes!!), and i bet it's by ground...planes have gone down from O2 tank "incidents". have witnessed a broken stem tank going through cement wall ....and a chlorine tank explosively leaking for no apparent reason (that gas is eerie green)..
My dad ran a racing shop his whole life and he has friends that had a tank torpedo through walls before!

Hot soaks in the tub work like a charm for me.

I gave my opinion last year when I had the worst cycle of my life after the shots. Might have just been a coincidence but it was terrible.

The crazy thing about CH is it can only be diagnosed and treated from the patients words.

My left eye which is my cluster side has been getting worse than the other eye for years. I need a new prescription right now ever since last years 6 month cycle.

Hey, Sorry you are hurting. Try a super hot soak or shower but I like the soaks. They can abort the attack just like oxygen can and quickly. It does not work for everybody but it works for me! GL Warrior.

I pray that my daughter will not have them. She is two years away from when mine started at age 27

One of my attacks came after blowing a candle out and breathing in the smoke of the wicks. After that, no blowing out candles only capping them to put it out. This lead to cooking things at lower heat to not burn it and avoiding smoke entirely.
Especially hard because smoking Mari makes the stomach and mood feel better but don’t want to do it so that I don’t trigger a CH.
Burning cooking oil used to trigger me instantly but the strange thing is that it stopped being a trigger a couple years ago.

That will do it. Hope it ends soon Mark

I get bad neck issues, knots in shoulders as well every cycle. My range of motion is very limited and sometimes tension headaches. My cycle is due soon as well.

So you still might want to consider doing as many do and setting up a welding O2 system.
My bad, missed this. I may have to hit you up once I'm ready.

and yes please before everyone jumps on the O2 being the best. I live in the US and that's just not happening at this current time I've gone down that road with 2 regular doctors and 3 Neurologist and 1 Headache specialist. It's currently not in the cards for me as an option.
You can always go gonzo and do the welding oxygen. The route I am about to take...

Thanks everyone. I'm still trying to figure out this beast. January was pretty much 1 hit a day at nighttime and now as we have progressed into February it's moved to an afternoon hit and nighttime. So I feel it's ramping up to a climax. Hopefully at least.
Not too bad at all. My worst is about 7 hits a day but there are people that have 14 or more.

Nutcluster! I gotta have a beer with this guy! GL with your cycle, may it end soon.

After 23 years of CH the only thing I know at this point is that it's over if I can make it to the third day PF. Never had more than about 48 hours between hits.

So this probably isn't a sign of a cycle coming to an end?
It's so different for each person but for me it ramps up before it tapers down. You may be at the beginning of stage two of three etc.

When they switch do they usually continue at the original time as well or switch from one time to the other?
They switch all over the place time wise. Usually it's a couple weeks of right on time three times a day starting at 9pm then they go to every time you fall asleep all night then switch to random day hits. Early on in my cluster career they were like clockwork for the most part but it just keeps changing. Oh, and I have never used pharma for CH but I was trying to bust so many that was a factor.

That is pretty cool xBoss!!!
It is growing. I hope more states join soon.
"A Republican Missouri lawmaker introduced a bill this month to give residents with serious illnesses legal access to a range of psychedelic drugs like psilocybin, ibogaine and LSD through an expanded version of the state’s existing right-to-try law."

It gets harder every year to succeed with a claim. About 20 years ago it was cake. My wife was denied after a three year effort and she has all kinds of issues and has been hospitalized many times.
