Title: RE:Initial US Cluster Headache Survey Data Avail..

Wow, this is sad and a bit shocking...


Quote:
Conclusions: In the United States many CH patients are not currently seeing a neurologist, are not being exposed to recognized acute and preventive therapies and are not finding treatment to be effective when prescribed. This is leading to job loss and disability. This survey will help define the clinical description of CH.


This is one way to see that our medical system is severely broken, people can't afford it, or that people have just plain lost faith it in. 


<Edit>Someone may want to move this topic, my apologies, but I didn't see that one was already started.
