What is the first thing I should do after deciding to give an alternative method a try?
Anytime you decide to try a new approach to treating your headaches, you should first begin a diary of your headache activity to get a baseline of your current status. There are many diaries available online and additional links can be found on our links page. Continue to use this diary before and throughout the process of your new treatment plan. This will make things much more clear as to whether or not you are making progress and will be very helpful in determining future changes in your treatment plan. Clusterbusters has designed a Pain Tracker System that may be helpful, especially for cluster headache sufferers. It can be found on this site at : http://www.clusterbusters.com/tracker.
