Cluster headaches or migraines

Anyone here have experience with cluster headaches or migraines during pregnancy and have any home remedies they'd like to share? I do not know what else to do. I can hardly keep my eyes open to write this post. I used to suffer from migraines in the past and in the last year or two I've began suffering from cluster headaches. My doctor prescribed Fiorecet (bottle said take 1-2 every 4 hours as needed) and for the cluster headache I had on Tuesday, I took one, 4/ mins later I was in bed asleep and when I woke up, it was gone. I was so happy to have found something that worked. Fast forward to Wednesday evening, got hit with another one, took Fiorecet when I got home (it makes me drowsy so I had to wait about an hour before I got home before taking it) I finally fell asleep after an hour of struggling and now, 4 hrs later, I wake up and it is absolutely POUNDING. I mean AWFUL. I have a cold pack on my forehead/eye area and on my neck, took another Fiorecet, and have a natural peppermint/menthol headache stick that I've rubbed on everything that it says to. Anyone else have any remedies I could try?! I'm desperate here. Thanks ladies.

I don't get cluster migraines ( my mom does though, so I understand how extra awful it can be). But when pregnant with my son I was completely off caffeine so having a coke often helped with my fiorecet. I also do cold on my head with a warm bath ( but never when alone, I was worried about falling asleep). Have you tried "biofeedback" where you focus on something else ( like trying to raise the temp of your hand)? That sometimes works for my mom.

I take an electorlite/hydrolite drink when i get bad headaches and rest. It sometimes helps. It will hydrate you quicker then water.

Caffeine usually helps with my migraines. Drinking 2 large cups of coffee at a decent pace with some tylonal usually helps

I use to suffer from bad migraines that got worse in pregnancy, the only thing that helped was totally changing my diet and cutting out as much sugar and carbs as possible and trying to eat as clean as possible, my migraines totally went away. Hope you feel better soon
