check this out and lets bombard this IDIOT with the RIGHT CH info....... http://www.driesen.com/headaches.htm
here's a quote from his website Quote:Cluster headaches are milder cousins of the migraines that do not announce their onset with visual disturbances, do not cause nausea, and do not last very long. They usually occur in two or three episodes in one day, lasting between 10 minutes to a few hours each. Unlike migraines, cluster headaches include a stuffy nose. Cluster headaches are treated with the same medications as with migraines.

After some discussion with other members I think I will write a professional letter as the OUCH President informing the good doctor (PhD) of the error of his ways and maybe even convert him to an ally......hmmmm...it might help.

OHHHHHH, and clusters and migraines have the same cause. Hmmmm. Does that mean he can tell me what has caused mine?
But I will let Mark answer, he can do that in a much nicer, informative, gentle manner than me. There may be hope for the guy (ain't gonna hold my breath).

Good link Tara---
I sent a somewhat sarcastic (yeah, big surprise here) note and a few proper links to educate the good doctor. Frightening reality about the undereducated physician lurking in our midst and likely doling out improper diagnoses to folks that cannot afford it.

So, he has his PhD (piled higher and deeper!) but I don't see any real medical designations after his name. His degree is probably in basket weaving 101 but it sure isn't in CH.
People like him could do a lot of damage to the uninformed or those who believe Dr = God! Frightening!

he is a medical psychologist, psychology is the easiest phd to get and you almost have to have one to practice. They can't even prescribe medicine for psychology patients. He is trying to pretend he is a medical doctor. Maybe he thinks he will get more chicks that way. He is not even qualified to give an opinion on many of the topics he writes about. Loser

I'll agree with everything regarding this putz not knowing his a$$ from his elbow; however, John, you are way off in your statement about a psychology Ph.D. Especially Behavioral Psychology/Learning Processes.

Did my part, too. Also sent him a few links for his "edification."
I truly believe part of our job as knowledgeable, educated people is to "flush out the frauds"!
I shudder to think about sufferers who might have accidentally ended up at his site and stopped their searches right there.

I e-mailed him to both addresses in my usual well thought out, thoroughly researched and documented manner - for the first three or four sentences anyways. LOL Then I let him have it. Here's just a piece of my e-mail:
Quote:| Here's the difference: First, hit yourself in the head with a rubber mallet. This is a Migraine. Now, heat up a railroad spike in a hot flame until it glows. Now drive this into your eye with a sledge hammer. This is a Cluster Headache. Sound like any Migraine you ever heard of, you quack? I wish I had a fucking migraine so I could go lie down in a nice dark, cool and quiet room for a day or so instead of spending every damned day of the the last year suffering through 3 - 5 or more attacks of "the most severe (pain) known to humans..." |
|
What an incompetant schmuck. I sincerely hope he isn't actually treating headache patients for their depression caused by CH. He would either cause psychological damage to the patient or receive physical damage from the patient, depending, of course on who he was treating.
It would be interesting to see some of the e-mails this clown gets from this website.

Aguess this person has never experienced a CH attack! Lucky b*****d.
Luckily the doc I saw the other day for regular health check up knows that CH is not a same thing as migraines - and she knows that they are painful ones! 
Best wishes to all,
