Probably not what you would like to hear but I was talking to my neurologist about my insomnia the other day and I was remarking how even though I was only getting about 5 hours a night my migraines seemed to be a lot better than normal. I am a chronic insomniaic with chronic migraines. She said, as it happens, that she knew of a trial being conducted at the moment which is looking at the effectiveness of sleep deprivation on the cessation of cluster migraines because I'm not the only one, it turns out, that has noticed a link between these two things. So I presume you could put yourself in a sleep deprived state and it may be able to stop another bout or end the bout you are currently in? Not great bc obviously pain is exhausting but it is something you could try if you are desperate enough?
