Cluster headaches affect relatively few people, but for those who have them, it is a condition that can be all-consuming. Many describe the attacks as the most intense pain they have ever felt. And because the condition is rare, many patients unfortunately encounter doctors and practitioners who are not familiar enough with it.
A cluster headache diagnosis is based solely on your description of the symptoms. There is no blood test or scan that can confirm the diagnosis. It requires a specialist with experience and the time to listen carefully.
At Hemi, we map out your situation from the first consultation. We provide an accurate diagnosis, review your treatment options, and create a plan that fits your situation, including both attack management and preventive treatment.
We ensure that your specialist knows your history before you meet, so you don't have to start from scratch.
