Title: very serius question
Post by J.ten_Dam on Nov 13^th, 2003, 3:44am

[smiley=huh.gif]I often read that GPs and Neuros are not well informrd about CH in the USA. My question is do you have an association for headache patients in the USA?
If so get them to distribute information about CH to all the Neurological departments GPs and Chemists.
Here in Holland you regularely see folfders of the association for the headeach patients in which Ch en cronick CH is mentiond and what is more so is the fakt that wemen olso get it mentiond.
In this boeklet you also have a headachk test which is very good. You dont realy nead a doctor to diagnose it when you do this test.
I will try to translate the headach test if anyone is interested
