Not sure if anyone has ever looked these guys up but they are doing clinical trials on Cluster headaches treatments with psilocybin. I have even invested some money in their stock since i really believe in what they are doing.

Once my attacks are gone for a few days i will try going back to normal. Having a beer while watching a game, or smoking a cigar. Gotta live as much as you gan in between or else it makes it harder to get through it .what i mean is in the middle of a cycle the idea of having some beers when this is over can keep me motivated.

Also, if you are ok with sumatriptan, you may want to look at the nasal spray if not the injector, they work far faster than a pill. It was a wonder for me, only thing that really touched them.
same here. it is the only thing i have ever tried that even touched them. but again if i take one and then have 2-3 more attacks that day i am screwed. I have definitely "overused" the pills and hurt my digestive system before.

The pills barely work in any event. If you ask your doctor about oxygen, s/he is likely not to give it to you. Lord knows why, but that's how it usually works. You need to insist on oxygen, and/or find a doctor that is competent enough to prescribe it. For a bunch of stuff that might be helpful, take a look at this file: https://clusterbusters.org/forums/topic/6213-basic-non-busting-information/
thank you will give it a read!

Thank you so much! I am going to research headache specialists in my area too. There are two on the list from this site. One is not with that practice anymore and the other is upmc which I cannot go to with my insurance

Thanks! My wife wants me to ask my dr about oxygen. I am going to to do that and see if he will prescribe it for me

When my cycles are concluding I have a constant “tightness” on that side of my face for a couple days. Just enough to make me think the cycle isn’t don’t. PTSD to the max

Thanks. Sometimes I KNOW I am taking too much triptan to get through a family event or something. My stomach pays the price. Plus my insurance won’t cover more than 9 pills a week. So if I run out I am in trouble.
I need to ask my dr about oxygen. And I would like to try mm

new here. why is sumtriptan bad? i use the 100mg dose alot during my cycles. what is a rebound?

Hello
I am new to this site. I didnt know a community like this existed. I have been suffering cluster headaches since i was 19 years old ( i am 39). Although I didnt know that until about 4 years ago. I was just told they were migraines. My current Dr was the first one to call them cluster headaches and gave me a prescription for Sumatriptan (100mg). These do EVENTUALLY take the pain from the headache i am feeling at the time away but dont prevent the next one. The next one could come anywhere between 2-24 hours later, depending where I am in my cycle. My headaches tend to start slow and far between then ramp up to very sevre and happen 4-5 times in a 24 hour period. So sometimes i take a pill and then i get another attack before its safe to take another. I am currently on the "backend" of a now 6 week cycle and hoping i am almost done.
I am very interested in trying to bust this pattern. I may want to try doing it after this cycle is gone. What amount of mushrooms by weight is recomended?
anyone else in the western pa area on here?
