Mine is filled with useless crap :/

He enjoys irony :)

Zazu, you locals also spend more time in the parks and can notice such things. I can't recall anything on my last trip, but I was also not looking for it :)

I know exactly what you mean ktulu. The only thing I remember from my last trip was a 12 pack was 'cheaper' than a 6 pack at the 7-11. (per beer that is)
I 'think' I was looking for someone also??

"Chronic paroxysmal hemicrania (CPH)" is what he thinks I've got, which is a lot harder to spell than "cluster headache" or even "migraine". But if the drugs for that keep me headache free, I can learn!

Chronic paroxysmal hemicrania- Is that a new pet name for SWMBO? :D:

I know but I have a lot of experience being on the lam.

Zazu, I realize your doctors probably gave you the lowdown on your condition, but for the benefit of others, here's an educational link:

Bottom line, it's rare, nobody's sure what causes most cases, and it's slightly more common in women than in men.

Naw, I had to find it on <webmd.com> just like he did. If I had prescription authority, I probably would have treated myself with the same therapies my (five) doctors have tried in pretty much the same order.

The way my current neurologist explained the process: "We're sort of throwing things at the wall to see what sticks. You're paying me the big bucks because I *may* be able to make an educated guess about what to throw next, but at least I *admit* that I'm guessing. That's why we call it *practicing* medicine--we're not very good at it yet."

How can you not like a guy like that? Reminds me of my previous GP, who on the first visit declared that I was, "A lame pain in the ass." Upon seeing my raised eyebrow, he explained that I had a strained ankle and hemorrhoids.

Sounds like the surgeon who removed a cancerous growth from an area my wife swears was never exposed to the sun. Stuff like,"Smells like we're BBQing pork butt on the beach."

If ever there was a straight line. :)

And mine... Somewhere, I have copies of the MRI's and the CAT's to prove it.
