Today I emailed the AMA on their website, strongly encouraging them to have all MDs especially ER docs trained in what a cluster is. I mean it's very sad that chiropractors and dentists are very familiar with CHs, but mainline docs aren't?

It's no excuse I think.

My next move is to contact the deans of every medical school in the US and give them my edited colleague letter. I bolded some stuff, put other stuff in red and added the comment about chiropractors and dentists, and some other stuff. (Let me know if you want to see it and I'll send it your way)

Do you all think this is a good idea? Anyone else on board? I mean together we can do something to ensure that no one ever walks into an ER in excruciating pain with a CH and gets blown off or diagnosed with something stupid such as cranial rectosis (stole that from a radio station). IMHO the ignorance of these medical staff means the cranial rectosis is what

they

suffer from when they just blow us off.

Anyone else we should contact?
