...to examine your child. Tell your family doc that you need a referral to one, especially since these headaches are starting so young. My daughter inherited migraines from me (yes, I get both CH *AND* migraines, though I'll take a migraine anyday over the CH), we had to bug the family doc for a referral, he figured we could just wait until she hit puberty and things got worse before bothering with a specialist. We cut that crap short. What area of the country are you in? There are some outstanding Children's hospitals in various areas, that was where we took my daughter, the neurologist was excellent--better than most I had ever seen for my headaches. Feel free to e-mail me or post back if you want to talk more.Blue skies and PFNAD,Todd Owen
