Cashing in on CH...
Sep 18th, 2008 at 8:05pm
 
Hiya,

I googled 'cluster headache' earlier and came across the following add:


Do You Suffer Cluster Headache?
Your Cluster Headaches
May Be Coming From Your Neck

chiropractor.org.au/Headaches
Victoria


So I sent them an email.  I tried not to be too rude  Wink  I included the following link which outlines some of Dr Goadsby's research into CH.

Stuff like this really shits me - to think of all the years we go undiagnosed and get shafted, told its our neck, tension, migrane, teeth etc etc etc.

Pffff my neck is causing my CH.   I don't think so!!

For me that begs the question..."why?"  Your observation of cashing in on our pain is correct.  They don't deserve politness in my opinion.

I'm glad you sent them the conversation with Goadsby.  Not that they'll read it.

Tension HA's maybe, but theres no way that shit works for CH.

After a car accident in 1986 I went to one of those quackes for my back....he said he could cure my CH while I was there.....LOL.....YOUR FIRED!

I got me another chiro that just wanted to work on my back.

Everybody's out to make a buck and they dont care what kind of oil they are selling! Angry

We all know, CH is an entirely different ballgame. But, to my shame, I have to admit all the silly things I tried to stop my CH. I won't list them here, but in the nineties I tried about ANYTHING offered, including loads off mumbo jumbo.

Hangs his head down in shame, Pascal.

There is NO shame in trying whatever possible to get rid of these. Before I know what they were, I'd have flushed my head down a toilet, rubbed my left foot in toad poison and sucked the teat of a ewe if someone had told me it would help...

Thank God for CH, not only in giving me answers, but saving me resorting to those 'cures'.  Wink

A chiropractor has been working on my neck cuz of the whiplash from the accident like Jonny and his back, one day he was getting some readings on the progress or whatever and it was only a few hours after a couple bad hits and the reader thing went way out of line just that day, said the trigeminal nerve can get close or disturb a certain vertibrae in your neck....but didn't say he could fix it!  um doesn't quite work that way...he actually left my neck alone that day with that reading lol.
but maybe thats where all the quacky drs were coming up with their ideas?
