I too have had trouble with getting doctors and "specialists"
who know about CH or who will even listen to my ideas. Thank
heavens I finally have a very good doctor, who prescribed
oxygen at my request and had the good sense to admit he did
not know very much about CH"s, he sent me to a wonderful
nuerologist and my last cluster headache episode was a lot
easier (it was a breeze!!!) Just keep on trying new DR's
the perfect one for you is out there!!! I have had CH's since
I was 19 and I am now 38 (i won't admit that to everyone)
and just was actually diagnosed in August of 98. I have been
telling Dr's for years that that is what I have. So don't be
discouraged... sometimes it takes time to find the right doctor.
