Hi, just reading the comments regarding, Doctors and CH in the USA comes as no surprise to me. The same lack of knowledge about the CH condition also exists here in, Australia. I understand the reason for this, in this country, is probably due to the fact that we have such a small population, only 18 million people,and most clusterheads go un-diagnosed. I suffered for 16 years and was tested for everything from brain tumours to bad eyesight before I met a physician who diagnosed the problem immediately. Now I have given up telling doctors about it and just treat myself with 'off the shelf analgesics'. That's the reason I love this site ... at least you people understand.
Regards
Tony
