Hold on Bob. Don't let your panties get all bunched up again on this one. I understand that you can't grasp this concept, some will not. I won't even be offended that you are skeptical. However, I do take offense to your repeated efferts to discredit Larry by implying that his battle could not of been "True" CH's because he got rid of them by having chiropractic treatments. I am here to tell you, Bob, that my husbands battle with CH's, and his experiences with the chiropractor are very "True". Why on earth do you think that we would have spent so many hours reading posts and sharing his experiences? If he hasn't had a bout with clusters in 6 years, and is experiencing no pain what do you think brought him here to the board? Do you think for a moment that it may have been for someone to tell him his clusters weren't "true"? I think not! I will tell you what we both came here for. To share his experiences with as many that will listen so that maybe just maybe one more person could benefit from Larry's battle. We truely feel for your pain, and all of the rest of the people out there that have to deal with this monster. If we can't help you in any way Bob then I am TRUELY sorry. I do fear for you and your closed mindedness. If you are so firm on what you believe to be true, and you choose not to open your mind to other avenues that is your choice we are not forcing you or anyone else into anything. I'm not even just talking about our specific experience, but other experiences that people bring to the board that worked for them. What I am hearing from you is, if any persons experience wavers at all from what you firmly believe in then the only explanation could be that what they experienced wasn't a "TRUE" cluster. Could it be possible that you will miss a cure that way? I really hope that wont be the case because through all of this I still have great compassion for you and your battle with C.H.
