Cindylee, I was diagnosed with cluster headaches in 1982. Now my doctor thinks I have both migrain and cluster headaches. the treatment that worked for me was taking a beta blocker (Inderal) as a preventative but when or if a headache did break through I then took Zomig which is the first medication I have ever taken that actually works wonders. I was then diagnosed with asthma and could not longer take beta blockers (which interfere with Advair) so now take a calcium channel blocker instead and that works well as a preventative too. Prevention of these types of headaches is half the battle and a big thing is to pay attention to what seems to trigger them. for me, my triggers are the barometric pressure in weather (if it is very hot and humid or very very cold and dry I could get a headache), not getting enough sleep and getting over tired, and I have to stay away from certain foods (hard cheeses, red wine, caffeine etc.) I hope your dh is able to find something that will work for him. There are many new treatments out there that can do wonders.
