WOW! More medical information!

I just got done reading the information on webMD about cluster headaches and I'm WAY impressed! I remember reading their info a couple of months ago and they had the same old stereotypical "old-school" BULLSHIT that everyone else on the net had. Now, they're just about right on! There are a couple of things I raise my eyebrows at, but who am I? For the most part, there's REALLY GOOD information there!!! And not once did they mention the hazel eyes or the orange peel skin! LOL Check this link out and follow all of the "extra links" on the right hand side of their pages to all of the different categories... http://my.webmd.com/encyclopedia/article/1826.51176 The only thing missing in their coverage is a link to our support group, and OUCH! Something I'll have to work on.

Now to work on a link to O.U.C.H. incorperated with the informatin that they have compilled might make it complete! Pappy ;D ;D

Interesting article-does anyone know if the percentages of male/female sufferers are reflected in this website? I was just wondering as I read it if more men post than women and I haven't been around too long. Just curious-Jabeen

It's true that more men than women report cluster headaches and I believe women are more likely to report such things. If this is true, that more men report CH, I think it's significant. Charlie

Wow! Really, really good information here, DJ - I'm impressed. Except for the MB and OUCH, I don't think I've seen as comprehensive and accurate information such as this for a long while. Thanks! Jim R
