Cat,
Thanks for taking the time & sharing your writeup. The discussions were very informative and I am amazed that a "Quality of Life" study hasn't already been done. Heck, just in the 6 months I've been on this board I've seen posts on almost every imaginable aspect of life being negatively affected by CHs. Hopefully this, combined with an advocacy group will get researchers & drugCos interested enough into finding the cause & cure. Gotta find that loudmouth, though. ;D
Again, thanks for sharing.

LOL Bruce, finding the loudmouth in this group shouldn't be too difficult! LOL
I have already requested a few 'loudmouths' for an advocacy committee should the board approve it

Cat,
Very nice write-up! Thank you
Is there anyway we can get a copy of the slide presentations that Dr Bigal and Lori used?

Bryan, I believe that DJ is trying to get a copy of the slide presentations to post on the site
I have the papers that they gave us as well, all the different abstracts from cephalgia. I'll get those done up in a book format and those will be available too

aRgh, ok guys, I really appreciate the kudos and all, but really, this isn't MY doing. Everything that came out of the convention came about because of EVERYONE there.
The info is because of everyone, you all participated and made the write up clear and concise because you were in discussion with our speakers.
Really, all I did was provide the venue!

WoooHoooo Cat!!
Hey, you're right! The lady won't take the compliment. First off she's a clusterhead ... sometimes doing anything is an accomplishment. Then she's a mom with a youngin' running around her knees ... watch out for the roll block. Then she organized what I've heard is a kick butt convention ... no small task considering all the details that needed to be taken care of. She takes time out of her schedule to type up a lucid account of the technical aspects of the med talks ... and if that's not enough! Finally, she's getting ready for a 1200 mile move of family ... nuf said?
Just sit back, shudup, and take the compliment. ;D
Kudos Cat.

Ok..Cat...you are a mere spec in the universe. No more or less important than any other....i then give you a spec tickle for yer work.
BUTT...remember ...as one of my cohorts in the "doin good stuff for friends , family and the public" club always says...."no good deed goes unpunished" 
SOOO...I'm curious as to the source references for the information in that report. Ya know ...like the ...official "Who said what stuff"....references and the like....footnotes and abstracts...and ...ppproof!
OR...is this a transcript of their speeches?
If I quote the document...Who am I quoting?
No pressure.....simple stuff fer a spec of yer stature.
Love
Den
PS: I gotta run right over and post this on the OUCH site...after all ...these are 2 different entittttys

LOL Den. This spec is happy to tell you the source of the information. However, I should have done a better job of it on the report. That was something Ted pointed out too.
All the information in the report is from my notes and the video tape of Dr. Bigal. As I noted on the report I didn't have the video of Lori until today, so I will work on an addendum to include missed info.
When the video comes out, you can see for yourself
For a nominal fee of course
I also have the papers from the cephalgia articles and abstracts. The good Dr. and Lori gained their information from medical journals and from current studies and research.
If you want to know who to cite when you quote the write up, cite Dr. Marcelo Bigal and Lori Choyce. That's why included their bios
Hope that answers yer q's
