How did all start?

I noticed headaches that started in my 20's and found that nothing helped with the pain.

Steroids until I finish them and the CH's are right back

Trying to have a normal life

How has your social and family environment reacted? Have your social or family relationships changed?

Yes, my spouse is over hearing about the pain and I find it easier to isolate myself instead of explain my diagnosis

What things have you stopped doing?

Almost everything social, also afraid to drive very much due to not knowing when a Cluster will hit

What do you think about the future?

Depressed about the likelihood of having to live with this forever

Early 20's, having my children

Work, church, life
