That point has been made before, and it is in the DEA info to docs about being able to spot drug abusers/seekers - that the person knows a lot about the condition....

I'm not trying to threadjack here Vastchoirs, I just really get so ACK when I read that over and over.... and I'm not mad at you toe for bringing it up... not killing the msgr...

Let's think about this one in a realistic and rational fashion shall we? Hmmm, I am in my 30's and am college educated. I have some post grad work under my belt.

I have had migraines for 20 years. I have seen regular doctors - GP's, Internal Medicine, and Family Practice... I have seen Neurologists. I have a family history of migraines, so I am not the only gal in the crowd having these things.

I actually have asked the doctors questions about my headaches over the past 20 years. And gosh - I remember the answers. I have read about the condition, done some research to see if I could get better.

Don't you think it would be irresponsible of me if I just paid no attention to anything but complaining?

If I walked into a doctor and said I have these headaches, been gettin em for bout 20 years now, and dunno a dang thing bout em. He would think I was goofy!

What kind of person with any sense of well being just lets their health decline without trying to learn why?!

end of vent.

thank you for your time.

you may now return to your regularly scheduled program.
