I darken my room and just sit there trying to calm myself down. It helps make my headache go away for a few days

I’m wondering this myself. I made more doctor appointments to ask them what they think I should do since my meds haven’t been helping my headaches as much and I’ve just been barely functioning 😔

Never be afraid to ask for a second opinion. Back in 2017 I was told I couldn’t suffer from Cluster Headaches because I was a female and they were too rare for me to have. In 2021 I was finally diagnosed and have been receiving medication that actually helps. Remember to keep that line of communication with your doctor and reach out when needed.

At first when I started Amitriptyline it worked then started to ware off. I went to the Dr and he upped the dosage and it's been working well for me for years. I also have Naproxen for when I have a breakthrough headache.
