Hi out there...
I have a good friend who's been suffering from CH for several years. She feels that speaking with others will not assist her, she's been on every type of medication known to man and now, for the past
few years has had problems with her employer. She is not able to work. Her employer initially allowed her a disability pay, but has since cut her off. HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THEIR EMPLOYER
OVER CH??? She doesn't know where to turn anymore. Her disability carrier has admitted that she is the first case they've had involving CH and feel "it can't be as bad as she says". If anyone knows
where she can turn please let me know so i can tell her. Again, this is the worst state she's been in...
Has anyone heard of the new medication called ZOMIG?? I saw a commercial for it today on the news. Also, is there anyone from Ontario, Canada out their that my friend might be able to contact via e-mail or not?

I can't believe there is a site like this. It's wonderful. I feel very emotional reading about each of you. I've seen what my friend has gone/going through for so long and it's heartbreaking. So many people
understand because they've never been in contact with someone who suffers from this horrible condition. It certainly robs you from living, I know it has my friend.

If anyone out there can give me advise to give my friend, I would certainly appreciate it...

Thanks so much...

Carol...friend of a CH suffer
