Hello Tanisha. It is great to know that you were diagnosed accurately. Like many of us, and possible you, went through a gammit of misdiagnoses for a long time ,only finding ourselves misunderstood, frustrated, and alone in our pain and suffering. Most all my friends are supportive and understanding and reading and most of all my family and this site I stumbled upon while surfing the net for information on Cluster Headaches. Yes, I read almost all the postings. I am fairly new to ch.com. and it has been a wonderful and fascinating experience. Since Clusters are pretty rare, I can come here and feel much less lonely when I suffer CHs and try to be supportive to our fellow suffer's . Posting and reading the Message Board has been very rewarding. When I first found the site, I really was glad to be here but was not exactly thrilled about having CH's beginning at the age of 16 I was totally oblivious as to what was wrong.My first try was to see a Dentist; the rest is history. THEY got worse and worse....but finally, I got the help I needed but it still is a tough row to hoe. I am reasonably happy and try my best to deal with the facts. I guess that is why I stick around here
Pain free days!:)
