Tara,
I can't find it either, but I've put out some feelers to try to locate it for you. Stand by.

Thx mike.
Here's another question... when calling new doc offices I asked if the doctor was familiar with CH. Is that what you all did? So far I'm waiting for a call back from one office cause the snotty secretary said she didn't know, so I left my name and number and asked her to ask the doctor and call me back. I just don't want to waste me time on an appt with yet another clueless doc. Do you think I"m going about this wrong?

I never had to make that call, Tara. My GP referred me, I called and made an appointment (shit, what did I know at the time?), and he turns out to be one of the premier headache specialists in all of SE Wisconsin.
Hell, I thought I had sinus problems back then. You're in a little different position. I'd tell the snotty secretary (there seem to be an abundance of them in neurology, for some reason) that you want to make an evaluation / initial consult appointment with Dr. X, but to make sure this isn't a waste of your time, you'd like to have the doc call you first because you have a few questions. If they don't call you back in a reasonable time, move on to the next one.
Any doc that won't return my phone calls isn't worth my time or money.
JMHO.

I gave up trying to find a doctor who knew clusters.
I educated myself on clusters and then taught my doctor.
I think it works well to have a Doc who is clueless. I tell him what I have (clusters) and what I want to try as a treatment. He's really just there to sign the scripts.

Me too. Jeeze second time this month someone has agreed with BobP
I was lucky though that my Dr. does not have the God complex and is willing to learn from me. Most are NOT.
What I would ask instead of "are you knowledgable about CH is...do you now or have you ever had, any CH patients" THAT is a big clue.
