I'm 39 year old mother of 4, ages 21, 18, 15 and 14. I've been married to my best friend for 22years.
I have suffered from headaches and migraines since the age of 6, when I had a bad fall and fractured my skull in 3 places.

For the last 3 months I have had a headache on a daily basis, different to any headache I have ever had before. I have been to the doctor over and over and she has given me more drugs than I can remember to try, with little or no effect. I finally got her to refer me to a neurologist, who has ordered an MRI. He said he thinks what I am suffering from is cluster headaches.....
I wake up every morning with a dull ache over my whole head, some days worse than others, and every afternoon between 4 and 5pm I get this sudden sharp pain stabbing through from the side of my head and out my left eye, it is the most excruciating pain I have ever felt, my eye starts to twitch, and gets so itchy, the left side of my face goes bright red and feels like it's on fire. This pain hits suddenly and lasts for up to 20-30mins, then the dull ache comes back.....This has been my day for 3 months now......The pain gets so bad I have even thought about putting a bullet in my brain just to stop it.
