Bill,
I have been seeing Dr. Rosenthal in the Neurology Dept. of the Northwestern Medical Faculty Foundation. He seems far more knowledgable about CH's than most other neurologists I have seen and we have had great success so far. The office is located at 675 North St. Clair Street in Chicago, and the number is (312) 695-7950.
One word of warning - he is a strong believer in rebound headaches and does not want me to take abortive meds more than once or twice a week (except for oxygen), so brace yourself for a few difficult weeks until the preventative meds can become effective. He has been, however, more generous with abortive meds when I have a flare-up until I can get into the office to see him.
