Since we are using the Internet as our tool for obtaining information about Clusters, I thought of a different aspect that I have not heard mentioned. We all know that from all reports so far, women are the minority with Cluster Sufferers in that 90% of all sufferers are male.
I am seeing a lot a ladies posting on our site.
What about our race. Has anyone taken a survey to see if only Caucasian's have Clusters? Is it directed at one race? We know it is not decicated to just Americans, because of all the diffrent countries that are represented in our "Where We Live" segment.
DJ if you are listening, maybe we should add another question to our survey. If it would not offend anyone let's discuss the nationalities and races of our sufferers. Even us ladies have no problem telling our ages. I think it is because we are each one decicated in atempting to help our fellow man or lady get some relief from this Demon that has invaded our lives and the lives of the ones we love and live with.
Are there any amoung us that is a twin? Does your twin have clusters also? If not, I wonder why.
One last thing, if "Clusters" are not heriditary, (as they say applies to Migraines)then why do we have so many brothers, fathers, etc. that also are CH sufferers.
