Hi Mary,

It's not just an UK thing: I went to a emergency room some weeks ago when the pain was to much and I shot 7 Imigran injections in 20 hours, asked them to put me on O2. They asked their neurologist and refused, because THERE WAS NO SCIENTIFICAL PROOF that it would help!!!

Only after my wife gave them hell they gave it, after 5 minutes the pain went away and I slept for some hours. Awakened, I tried to explain the pain, they were not interested, just told me to see my dr because they would not give it again.

IDIOTS!!!

Hang in there! I share my O2 with another patient right now, maybe there is another CH patient in your neighbourhood who is willing to do that? you can post a message asking!?!

Wishing you only painfree days!! Rob.
