Hi guys,
I would like to share with you my findings about the cause and the cure for my extremly painful cluster headaches.
Im having this nightmare pain from when i was 18y old, they started to appear every fall and lasted exactly one month, once a day in the same time every day while sleaping and sometimes during the day after a drink etc etc.. Then they were gone, when i started hitting the jim hard, 5 years have passed after my last episodes and than BAM! Three weeks ago the beast have returned, the first few days advil have helped, at least i think it helped, after that only warm bottle with cover filled with boiling watter eased the pain but still i needed to take Zolmitriptan 2.5mg to abort the attack within 40minutes, this time i was having 6 attacks per day and feared of the side effects that triptans do, after 10days i started to have chest pains along the clusters (side effect od zolmitriptan i think). I was calling everywere in my country to find and buy Medical Oxygen with no avail, they said that are not selling for house use because is 15L per minute and 40L canister (8h breathing oxygen).
So i started to do my thorough research, i started questoning why after hard jim workouts i had five years pain free period. I started to learn the musscle structures of our body (the back expecialy) and bam! I found interesting study that the "Upper Trapezius" can bring the pain in our head that we are experiencing, that is happening because our stiff muscles and we need to ease that pain with the fastest "Myofascial trigger rellease points" therapy! All you need is one tennis ball or in my case i used hard apple. In one day my pain was gone, f..king gone, the next day i experienced tension headache but advil has dealt with it.. 13 f..king years with the beast pain that f...ed up my daily life.
This links bellow will help you begin to understand the Myofascial release therapy and after that google is your friend. The Upper Trapezius caused my pain, i hope it will help you too...
