I have been told by my dr that I have both
migrains and cluster headaches. The
cluster headaches happen frequently,
several times a week where the migrains
aren't as regular. I find that the
migrains happen more often around that
time of the month. I've been dealing
with these for a year or so now and can
take imitrex for the migrains and it works
great but nothing helps the cluster
headaches. I've also become nautious and
dizzy lately and not sure if that has
anything to do with the headaches or not.
Is anyone else familiar with cluster
headaches and if it's normal to become
nautious and dizzy over time with these?
Thanks for any help.
