Have you or anybody you know been diagnosed with Moya Moya Disease? I have recently been diagnosed and would like to talk to others with this disease. It turned out to be not "just a headache"! Thanks LisaH

Anyone who is interested can get some literature from the National Organization for Rare Disorders. Headache, Cluster is publication #720 and Moyamoya Disease is publication #617 Each publication costs $7.50 if you order it, I'm not sure how much they have online. NORD Literature PO Box 1968, Danbury CT 06813-1968 Make sure you include the entry # and # of copies you want and send a check or money order and a return SASE if you don't use the NORD form to order it. NORD's website is http://www.rarediseases.org NINDS: http://www.ninds.nih.gov/health_and_medical/disorders/moyamoya.htm Cat

Yes, you're right catlind. Thank you for the links! I also encourage anyone with Moya Moya to contact me personally via email.... Being diagnosed with the disease, I've built an EXTENSIVE list of EVERYTHING I found available on the web about Moya Moya. It's probably much more than the NORD can give you! I'll pass on all of my info FOR FREE to anyone interested. DJ
