Hello, I thought I was done! I have been in remission for three wonderful years, and BAM! They came roaring back. My Neurologist left town, so I had to find a new one. Luckily I found one that specializes in HA's, and understands what we go through. So there is hope. I have been asked to take part in an Imaging Study. A local radiologist has a 3-TESLA MRI Scanner that is linked to a PET scanner. The final outome is called a fusion scan. He wants to do a basleline scan, then while I am in the scanner, induce a CLUSTER with NG, and then after the headache is at peak, reverse it with IMITREX. So, this will actually give images of the cluster actually coming to be, progression, and abortion. At first I thought , HELL NO!! There is no way I'm going to let someone GIVE me a cluster, but the more I thought about it, if I can keep anyone else from going through this, or aid in research, I'm willing to give it a shot. I'll Keep you posted. MR_JESTER (Bill)
