My husband has been treated by a number of general practitions over the last ten years, He has been referred to ENT specialists and has undergone three nasal surgeries. Nothing has helped with his headaches. Hearing a Vancouver, BC radio programme the other daymande me wonder whether this could be cluster headaches and so I have delved into the wonders of Internet and found your website. I really don't know whether this is what he has, but he is once again being referred to an internist and have printed off all the information provided on the website and he will attend his appointment with definite instructions to mention this as a possibility. It has been his doctor's contention that he has a degeneration of the spine in the neck and that we should just accept that nothing will help. I know how painful this has been for him over the years - his face changes color whenever he has a headache, but he never complains. Unfortunately his temperament changes with the onset of each attack and, quite frankly, it
plays havoc within the family. Hold thumbs that we can get a difinitive diagnosis and perhaps some medicinal help when he sees the internist.
