Anybody else here have migraines and/or cluster headaches? I started getting migraines in 99 then was just diagnosed having cluster headaches (a variation of a migraine with a few differences). Started out just getting 3-4 a year but since 06 has been anywhere from 3-10 days per month. I've seen several doctors and had every test known to man ran and they've tried me on several preventative med's and finally found one (Verapamil) that helps some and don't have terrible side effects but I still have 2-6 per month. Just wondering if anybody else out there gets them or has a loved one that gets them and if they've had any luck with any perticular medicine whether it be doctor prescribed or homeopatheic. Also if anybody's found a certain trigger. I found Ice cream triggers them with me. Sucks too cause that was my favorite eve. snack. So far that's all I have identified that triggers them. The rest can just happen any time. Can be feeling fine one minute than an hour later WHAM!! Might as well hit me in the head with a hammer. I even lost partial sight in my right eye in 07 for 3 days due to a severe 3 day migraine. That's my only good eye too, go figure. Thank God it cleared up.

I also have 7 discs in my back degenerated and causing alot of pain. C5 and C6 are bulging. T10-11-12 are worn real thin. L5/S1 bulge. Not sure if the C5-C6 discs have an affect or not but since their in the neck I guess they can but they say there's no way to tell for sure.
