Title: Thank you!!!
Post by edoubleitk on Jun 11^th, 2004, 10:52am

Thank you so very much for the info. Beyond appreciated!!!
It's bizarre: I always had them (since I've been getting them) come in the middle of the night. It wasn't until last year that they would come back through out the day. Same this time. It sucks!!
The other frustrating thing is trying to get appointments with Drs. "We can see you in 2months....." By then I will be ok hopefully and wait until the next batch occur.
Easily called over a dozen!
I was lucky enough that someone I know called in a favor and was able to get me an appt. monday. Thank God!!
Anyway thanks again. Truly!!!

Welcome!
I agree with Bob on your other thread...
Don't settle for just any doc. Seek out a neuro that specializes in headaches and has experience with clusters.
The wait is always lengthy, but there are always cancellations.
The way to get in early is call the office EVERY morning and see if there are any cancellations so that you can get in early. It's just a statistical fact that there WILL be cancellations on a fairly regular basis, so if you use this technique you should be able to get in within a week.
The odds of no cancellations throughout a whole week are very low.
