Title: Genetic Research
Post by Bionicman on Oct 7^th, 2010 at 11:08am

Hello All, UCLA is currently testing me and my families DNA for a bad gene. I've been Chronic for over 10 years, undergone Stereotactic Surgery, X-Knife Surgery ( Gamma Radiation ) and the D.B.S. Implant in 2005. The Professor of Genetics believes Cluster Headaches are caused by a BAD gene. UCLA has several samples of blood from myself and family members who ALL suffer from Clusters. UCLA is Undergoing this Research NOW and trying to find a solution. Lets hope they find it SOON.

Will be interested to see what, if anything, develops from this.

If you'd be kind enough to point us toward any results when they are published (and I realize this may be a good, long time) I know many of us would appreciate it.

Thank you.

Best,

George
