My simple understanding of CH sufferers is that we all fall into a vague category created by doctors to simply put us somehwere in ther medical-book index (note sarcasm.) We all have similar symptoms. And each of us has six out of ten symptoms. Or more. Or fewer. Or something slightly diferent. But we fit the vague category.
In the 25 years I've had CH it was not until about 15 years ago I found a doctor that said I had something. Early on one doctor told me that I couldn't possibly have a "headache" on just one side. Yeah, right!
Atypical? Another meidcal-sub category. Same pain.
