Liz, my onset of CH at age 18 was the basis of the first
science fiction story I ever wrote (boy was it bad!)
and I wrote most of my first novel during a cluster
period. I am a professional musician and
jewelry designer too, and CH only affects the creativity
insofar as the fear of more pain controls my life, but between
headaches, I am able to think and create. What you have
does NOT sound like CH. In fact I'm surprised that
your doctor thought you had CH, since they usually
don't believe they are seeing a woman with CH.
Please!!! get a different doctor's take on your symptoms,
and keep us posted. We care.
