Don't look anything like that. Don't know anybody that does.
Tall and rugged? More like short, fat and balding, the lot.
Thick skin/wrinkles? There's a lot of OLD people around here.
Forehead creases? Yup. See: OLD.
Nose veins? Yup. They say it's from smoking, but we all know it's the demon rum.

Don't look anything like that. Don't look anything like you.

Don't look much like Mast, either.........

Drat. Forgot the lionlike features. WTF is up with that? Fangs? A Mane? Unless a beard counts, it's none of the above.

Edited to include a required answer. This IS a test, isn't it?

LOL!!! What a crock of shit.

I remember one description in a book my mom bought years ago...squared jawline, usually very tall...
Onsets in 40's or 50's... yada yada...

Wondered why I was short and pudgey. Hell the only thing that book nailed was the red eye and thick tears protruding from it.

Just like the Dr. who someone posted about who said it was "a milder migraine that doesn't last as long." Methinks he was a veterinarian.

Peace,

I dunno - I am tall, I am rugged (defined - althletic - strong build) I do have a *mane* of long honey blonde hair. No wrinkles yet (only in my early 40's) I suppose i would describe my chin as strong (as opposed to weak) and i definately feel like this during a HA:

I was formally diagnosed in my early twenties but had sufferred this disorder since age 12 ..........i remember grabbing ANY INFORMATION i could POSSIBLY get my hands on about cluster headaches.  I was always disappointed at the teeny tiny paragraph that wasted precious words on descriptions like "male, with a ruddy complexion  [smiley=huh.gif]).......seems they were on to sumpin - but it was misleading and IMHO should be ABOLISHED entirely :)

What DOES a cluster sufferer look like?  Why, just like you and me :)

very well said Kim!  I guarantee you could pass me on the street and never know I am a CHer and I am sure I could walk right by you and never know.  It's like describing what someone with cancer looks like.   >:(

Post by Margi on Nov 29th, 2004, 2:15pm
what a load of crap.   ::)

the only commonality I see, physically, in clusterheads is in the eyes.  You can tell from the picture page who is and isn't a clusterhead - just by looking at the eyes.

Yet another reason for all the OUCH's to keep plugging along and keep up the education efforts.

I've had grief lines in my forehead since I was 17. Now, at 35, I've got laugh lines and a sprinkle of gray hair to go with them.

Maybe we are the inverse of thier description.

Gotta luv how people can associate events/characteristics that are mutually exclusive.

Things that make me say Hmmmm....

I think the women to men ratio was way off also.

Just checked -- no wrinkles YET!  Guess it's true -- women don't get CH.

So I guess I'll go back to nursing my megraine...... since I don't qualify for CH this month....

Smokin? The only smokin i do is when it spews out my right eye - and not from cigs! I did smoke alot of weed when I was younger, maybe I'm reaping from fried brain cells!

John D & Eddie do look similar though  ;) don't ya think?

The only thing I figured out from those photos is that you ride a bike, which is cool.  But I could not make out what you look like at all.

Post by Mac_Muz on Nov 29th, 2004, 7:47pm
Well there is one pic of a single male in Chevy Truck which is NOT me.. Any pic with any single male then Has to be me.. Maybe the paint threw you off?

There are a few with no paint.. But still I think I look like a Turkey at least with all the feathers...

Ridin is what i do in the 20/21st century.. I sort dwell on a few centuries.

Might try "Tank Paint". the 3 of us, and "My Photos"> wedding 2......
