good points Judy
cannot BELIEVE the tales people tell here, of getting dumped on by family, for having CH
I must be very fortunate/unusual situation - the one thing that is "sacred" in our family (extended included) is illness - sick is sick, and we try to take care of - never seen it abused either
(well - one old gal IS a notorious hypochondriac, I swear she'd declare she had prostatitis if she thought it would get another trip to the doc's - but we all just blow it off and go around her)
a good suggestion is to print out the long article DJ has posted - you can get at it through the TOC page here - and hand it to the scoffer saying "if I'm making this up,where did this come from ?"
But - Judy - I have a question for you:
you said you slept through the day with a headache, and thus pissed off hubby (his problem I'd say)
what I'm curious about, is how the devil can you sleep away a day with cluster headache ????????
please let us in on your secret - it would be a miracle !!!!
hang in there all !
