Hi Bubbadog.
Here's my neurologist in the Hershey/Harrisburg area:
http://www.hmc.psu.edu/cgi-bin/provider.pl/sross2
I have seen my share of docs, and he is, without question, one of the best physicians I have ever seen. He is very receptive and one of the nicest persons you'll meet. The hard part will be getting an appointment scheduled. You will probably need a referal. If you can't get in right away, get on a 'stand by' list. If you're episodic and your cycle is about to end, schedule anyway, even if you're not in cycle. At least one other member of this message board goes to him for CH.

Bubba - some of us chronics would like a week without pain too. Maybe someday........
Good luck on finding a doc who knows something about CH. We've all been to a BUNCH of them. There are some good links here. Go to them and see (if the one you're going to call doesn't work out) who's available in your area.
Hoping you'll be pain free soon......
Hugs BD

Hey Bubbadog, Welcome to the "House of Pain". Go to the OUCH web site and you will find a list of Doctors in your area that are proven to be good CH doctors.
Good luck, Patrick

Do you think that when they asked George Washington for his ID, that he just whipped out a One Dollar Bill?
