Terry,
I understand what you're saying about teeth missing and that being related. In my case, I don't think it is related. I do think the missing teeth may have an effect on how the pain may feel though.
Most clusterheads were treated for many different problems before CH was properly diagnosed. I had 3 wrong diagnosis and was treated for those 3 things. None of which I had. It seems like whatever
specialty the DR. is in is what you get treated for. I spent a lot of time and a lot of money on nothing that helped. If this does turn out to be CH God forbid! Find a good Neuro. Maybe not the one
that is convienently located or easy to see, but one who is familier with CH. In the mean time look over this entire site and glean any info that may be helpful, including looking at the old posts from
the message board. You'll have to excuse those rediculous posts that allow us clusterheads to keep our sanity. If indeed George has CH he will need your support. I think CH can be just as hard if not
harder on the close supporters as it is on the one who has them. During the times the beast visits you will find this place to be very valuable and comforting. Please use it if needed. If you would prefer
you can e-mail me directly for any help I can give you both. My wife has had many years as a supporter and I'm sure would be glad to assist you in that respect any way she could.
Wishing you both PFD&N-
Larry
