Spike, you are so right that unless you are a CH sufferer, then you just cannot imagine what it is like. That's why it would be nice for someone who DOES know to be able to speak for those that don't have as much of a voice. And I'm glad to hear you wouldn't wish CH on anyone, including I'm hoping - even politicians. There's one in particular that I despise - and I wouldn't even wish it on him. Oh, maybe just one, so that he'd get it....

I tried to contact Kudrow (son of the first Kudrow headache guy and brother to Lisa). He wouldn't talk to me on the phone and didn't respond to my letter on OUCH letterhead. I think there was a little disagreement regarding his website "clusterheadache.com". He didn't use it for a long time but wouldn't sell it either. He grew to dislike us some from efforts to get him to turn it loose so we could use it.
I guess some people just have no tact.

Bob,
It's funny that I'm reading this here as I've heard this about him from other places, too... Rather disappointing, isn't it?

Yet I hear he's pretty good with clusters. At the first CalOUCH meeting, one of the guys, Lenny, had Kudrow for his doc. Said he really liked him.

Founding father, John Jay, elected President of the Continental Congress, Secretary of Foreign Affairs, First Chief Justice, two-term Governor of New York and recently honored by the CIA as "America's first counter-intelligent chief. (James Fenimoore Cooper's popular book "The Spy" was based on information from Jay.)
In retirement, he was asked to add some words for the Federalist party campaign but declined and lamented about the "vices and violences of parties and the corruption they generate and cherish." According to Jay, "all parties have their demagogues, and demagogues never were nor will be patriots." In his view the problem was not just a few individuals, but the whole system. "The rulers in democratic societies are generally men of more talents than morals. There can be little connection between cunning and virtue, and therefore our affairs will commonly be managed by political intrigue.'
There were too many people in his view, who "love pure democracy too dearly; they seem to not consider that pure democracy, like pure rum, easily produces intoxication, and with it a thousand good pranks and fooleries."
"There came forth from the French Revolution a spirit of delusion which, like an influenza passed over and infected all of Europe. Even our distant country has not entirely escaped. Delusions have their errands, and are sent for some purpose different than that of promoting peace."
Jay negotiated the treaty which bears his name, Jay's Treaty, he signed on Nov. 19, 1794, which avoided a disasterous war with Britain.
In 1809, Jay described Europe, then torn by war as " tempestuous and raging ocean; and who can tell what governments afloat upon it will escape destruction or distraction?"
June 1812, at the request of President Madison, Congress declared war on Great Britain.*
They are people, just like us, for which CH won't help.
*bio. John Jay, founding father.

I would have to agree that the quality of politician that we have now is but a fraction of those who wrote the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Of course none of this has anything to do with this thread (I think the thread had something to do with celebrities) but it did cause me to think this thought. What did those poor bastards in 1776 do when they had a CH? No O2, no lithium, no 'trex. I bet we were called witches back then.

Oh, I thought it caused you to think this thought:

Perhaps you think differently now?

Maybe it is just a Friday evening rumination. Our politicians are better when we look backwards. But it still got me thinking about the history of CH and trying to imagine what people back then thought of the "beast" and how they dealt with it, if at all.
Plus, the internet message boards weren't that good.
So there you are, 1776, you are in what will become known as South Dakota, it is cold, snowing, you are hungry, it is night time and - bam - a massive cluster headache. What the hell do you do? Ouch! Your hunting companion is William Jefferson Clinton. There is nothing he can do nor anything you can do. He can't "feel your pain" no matter what he says. All you can do is wait until it goes away and then the two of you can go back to hunting beavers.
gotta go.

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

Same thing most of us from the 60's & 70's did. Tuff it out and think you we're gonna die. No 02 or Trex back then. At least that I knew of. 
Lucky we never got burnt at the stake.

There's one Finnish soap actress who had CH. Apparently she spoke about it on TV once, but I missed that show. She has not given interviews about and the only time I've seen about it on papers was a small clip in one trashy magazine - and that was full of errors. I got so mad that I got hit... 
But what comes to migraines, one mag announces that Desperate Housewives & Melrose Place star Marcia Cross has them. And according to that article, it truly is migraine.
