I too had to diagnose myself...and to many
doctors. The doctor I have now has been very
co-operative and understanding, but he did not
think I had CH'S so he sent me to a specialist
who has a fair amount of exposure to cluster
headach patients and he says I'm classic except
for the fact that I'm a woman.
I sure hope we can get more exposure in the media,
because too many people probably are suffering
unnecessarily due to the fact that Doctors can't
learn everything about every disease in the time
they study.
