Treatment for Cluster Headache

Sumatriptan, a selective serotonin receptor (5-HT1B/1D) agonist, rapidly alleviates cluster headache symptoms by causing vasoconstriction and inhibiting neurogenic inflammation in cerebral blood vessels. When administered via subcutaneous injection, it provides rapid onset of action and significant pain relief within 10-15 minutes, making it a first-line acute treatment for cluster headache episodes.

This is me. It turned out that freaking out over if I was getting a migraine (and would have to call in sick to work) was a huge trigger. Switched to the morning shift at work and my frequency has gone way down.
