I shamelessly stole one of Bob Johnson's posts and copied it for you. A GREAT system for finding a headache specialist neuro. (Once again, my apologies for the theft Bob!)

Following that is a link on oxugen therapy, kind of lengthy, but has everything you need to know about 02. Our 02 guru, Batch, flew fighter jets off of carriers for many years, they breathe 100% oxygen for hours at a time and have no ill effects. So please don't worry about that. I'm a 33 year episodic sufferer, I abort with 02 in about 6-8 minutes. Has almost eliminated my use of imitrex.

LOCATING HEADACHE SPECIALIST

1. Search the OUCH site (button on left) for a list of recommended M.D.s.

2. Yellow Pages phone book: look for "Headache Clinics" in the M.D. section and look under "neurologist" where some docs will list speciality areas of practice.

3.  Call your hospital/medical center. They often have an office to assist in finding a physician. You may have to ask for the social worker/patient advocate.

5. Multimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!!  You need to or Look for "Physician Finder" search box. They will send a list of M.D.s for your state.I suggest using this source for several reasons: first, we have read several messages from people who, even seeing neurologists, are unhappy with the quality of care and ATTITUDES they have encountered; second, the clinical director of the Jefferson (Philadelphia) Headache Clinic said, in late 1999, that upwards of 40%+ of U.S. doctors have poor training in treating headache and/or hold attitudes about headache ("hysterical female disorder") which block them from sympathetic and effective work with the patient; third, it's necessary to find a doctor who has experience, skill, and a set of attitudes which give hope of success. This is the best method I know of to find such a physician
