Living With Cluster Headache and Migraine
Migraines often involve intense head pain alongside nausea, light sensitivity, and visual disturbances. Cluster headaches are characterised by extreme, one-sided pain occurring in repeated cycles or “clusters”.
Treatment may include triptans, oxygen therapy, preventative medications, and lifestyle adjustments. Many people continue to experience severe attacks despite these measures.
The unpredictability of attacks can significantly affect work, sleep, and emotional wellbeing.
