Doctors on OUCH list

Most of you know....but in case one of you doesn't...on the OUCH website there is a link entitled "Recommended Doctors." I was pleased when I saw that my own doctor was actually on the list. I found my way to him not by the referral list but through my neurologist. Just a little FYI if there are any interested readers -Liz

My general practitioner, Dr. Lynette Adams, in Shelbyville, TN, is not on the list, but she read the medical study printout that I printed from this site, looked at my symptoms and the treatments, and said, "Okay. I'm willing to work with you on this." She isn't a specialist in cluster headaches, but if she got a few more patients with them, she would be. Congratulations, Liz. -Frank

GP's can be a waste of time. I have found that the best approach is to either ask around here for references in your area or call local hospitals (the more reputable the better -- i live in Boston, there are many choices). Look for physician referal lines and ask the operators about headache specialists. They usually can help. Ed
