Did you know clusters only last a few seconds?

That is according to a new neurologist that I went to yesterday. According to Dr. Dodick, "Don't let anyone ever tell you that you don't have chronin clusters". Now I told this to Dr. Charlie.. But he said no since clusters only last a few seconds you can't have those. Time to keep looking for a different neoro.

You should have kicked him in his goolies and said..."don't worry the pain will only last a few seconds" then walked out of his office.

Athos, sorry you're having such a hard time finding a neuro who isn't a quack. How 'bout we beat him with a baseball bat for just a "few seconds"? Cheers, Juvy

I would have had to responded with, "You may THINK that clusters only last a few seconds, but unfortunately your ignorance on the subject will last a lifetime!" Peace, and never give up! CD

| Thats about how long my visit with him would have lasted. I've heard of Dr. Dodick from the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale.. Is he the one that commented about them lasting only a few seconds?

No DoDick was at the mayo and he diagnosed my as chronic cluster.. In fact he told me never let anyone tell you that you are not a chronic cluster headaches sufforer.. Dodick is one of the best, He is world reknown for his headache knowledge. He is the on that is doning the research on the optical nerver stimulator i think. No Carlie Julius in Lake Havasu is the one that went to see last thursday.. A twit....

Think he has icepicks mixed up with CH. Find another doc - this one isn't doing what you're paying him to do. Maybe a refreasher course would do him a world of good. Hugs BD
