I ccouldn't get on with gaberpentin gave me really bad migraines but I have had these since my illness began anyway but some medications do increase the frequency and level of these I take duloxatine and am ok on this instead I also have accupuncture to help with the migraines this is really good worth a try

Interestingly at 300mg 3 times daily I had more migraine and significant amount of excruciating cluster headaches, but thinking on it... since I was changed to 600, 600 and 900 (am, pm and eve) I have been WAY better. Increase was due to pain not being sufficiently controlled but a jolly improvement on the side effect.

Just a thought....
