Differentiating Cluster Headache from other Diseases

Other Types of Headache

  • Some people with extreme headaches of this nature (especially if they are not unilateral) may actually have an ictal headache. Anticonvulsant medications can significantly improve this condition so sufferers should consult a physician about this possibility.[2]
  • It is also possible to have two or more different types of headaches, complicating diagnosis and treatment.
