Sure Vig, agreed, that is how I am running this meeting. Anybody interested, the Las Vegas 1st meeting is tonight at the Clark County Public Library on East Flamingo at Maryland Pkwy (across from Starbucks and SavOn Drugs) at 7pm. Meet in the main lobby entrance off the back parking lot. About 8 people say they will show. Hope to see you there.

It was so good to meet five other Cluster Sufferers last night at our first "Cluster Sufferer" Las Vegas meeting. We all introduced ourselves, discussed preventative and abortive meds, local doctors, discussion of hypothalymus gland and trigeminal nerve, triggers, potentially forming a local chapter of OUCH, exchanged phone numbers, a demo of the "Imitrex Tip", etc. Met for 2 and a half hours.
All six of us were male, four out of six are smokers, we all are overthinkers, we all are left sided sufferers, ages ranged from 32 to 56, five of us are episodic, one was chronic, we all have health insurance or VA medical assistance, two of the six are Vietnam Veterans, three of us are self employed, one service-related disabled and two are full time employees, two reported deviated septums on the left (Cluster) side-one of these two men had it fixed but did not cure CH's, one had a brain tumor removed-but did not cure CH's, one with history of two closed head injuries. Of the six of us, one has been PF for 4 days, one is chronic with an average of 1 or 2 daily, the other four haven't experienced a CH in 2, 3 and respectively 4 years. Reported initial onset of CH's began at age 11, 16, 24, 30 and mid-20's, mid-30s. Very productive first meeting with all of us understanding that we now have local contacts and are not alone.

Sounds good, but will need to be a weekend, as during the week right now is a joke with the kids and such.
