my neuro didnt want to but he picked the wrong guy to
BS. so i stood in his doorway and told him look doc
miller i went to the er and they gave me two shots of
pain killer and it didnt do anything for me. 20 min later
pain med had kicked in but the head was still throbing.
i told the nurse that o2 works for these types of HA.
she hooked me up with the o2 and 20 min later i looked
up at my wife and smiled and said o2 worked baby.
thank god and i wish you luck but doctor or like lawers
good ones are hard to find. fire them, or stand there
till one gives it up. best wishes to ya. dont give up
PF wishes to all

There are plenty of good docs here in Michigan.
First - are you diagnosed with clusters? If not, you need to be before you try any particular treatment - even O2.
If you've been properly diagnosed and no doctor is prescribing oxygen for you, get thee to a different doctor - right NOW!
Until then, read the information on the left of this board called "Oxygen Info." At the bottom you'll find a link to Jonny. Ask him about a welder's oxygen set-up. A little initial cost, but no prescription needed.

You have to demand it from your doctor. If you have clusters and it has been proven that O2 helps you, you have to demand it. Its not like you are begging for some narcotics, it's O2, and you can't get high from it.....although I tend to hyperventilate.
Demand it.
If it's an HMO issue about costs, tell them you could hit them up for Imitrex...at about $60 a dose. Or, you could just simply go to the ER.
Demand it.
PF wishes
