even if he's not on your list, Dr. Soso, may be
worth it anyway. He ususally has a 2-3 month
wait before seeing him, but ask the receptionist
to talk to his nurse, then tell the nurse you are
a cluster sufferer. I got my last appointment in
2 days! Also, take any medical records from
your old MDs (if available). He usually doesn't
need to see you after the first time. If he's
convinced of the diagnosis, he'll call in meds
and stuff based on your needs. This guy truly
listens to me. Also, if you go, ask for samples.
I got several nasal sprays and injections, so that
the visit was basically paid for.
So far, the verpamil has kept this cycle from
developing. I will take your advice and stay on
them for a while until I'm sure they are gone. My
history has been that what generally works well
one cycle, works less well in subsequent cycles.
All except for the Imitrex injections.
Best of luck.
