Hi Linda

I can sure empathize. I know more about clusters than my doctor, too. I got my doc to prescribe Imitrex, but the pharmacist is afraid for me to take it because I'm allergic to sulfa drugs and there's sulfa in the Imitrex compound. I feel like I would be a nuisance to my doctor to call her back again, but I don't want to live in pain either. It's like there's a barrier between me & my doctor, because first I have to call the doctor's secretary and tell her why I want to come in. grrr. It's a liiiitle frustrating. At least, though, my doctor doesn't seem to buy into this Doctor-as-god b.s. that our whole society subscribes to. But she is rather inaccessible.

Someone posted a message earlier this month about Esgicplus, I think maybe it was Margi? Or Barbara? Someone whose husband has CH.

Peace,
Dianna
