Just want to share my story.

My CH started at the age of 13. I'm 35 at the moment, but I was only officially diagnosed with CH 4 years ago. I respond well to oxygen. Historically, my active CH periods occurred every 6 months and lasted 1-2 months.

I was also diagnosed with autism and ADHD 2 years ago and started taking the medication cocktail mentioned in the title. As a side effect, my CH went into total remission. I haven't had a single headache since then.

Do doctors research the effects of dopamine agonists/stimulants on the hypothalamus? It seems like a valid area of study, since the hypothalamus is rich in dopaminergic receptors and CH is known to involve this part of the brain.
