I see a "registered nurse practioner" who has actually done a lot of research on ch. She only has two patients with ch, me being one of them! I just finished a 2 year remission and she asked me, "what did you change to bring them on?" I'm not a fast thinker so I wasn't able to respond with a snappy retort. That being said, she does do research, gives me 02, imitrex, cafergot and anything else I ask for. So while that question is annoying, (like saying ch is a bother!), I wouldn't necassarily write him off just for that!!! If he helps you and seems to know something about what bugs you, give him a chance!
