[at-l] Lyme disease

Your doc was nuts.  You’d know it if you had a cluster headache.

I got a certain amount of vindictive joy out of sending my ex-doctor the lab report showing I really did have Lyme Disease.

LOL :-) I remember one time I told my doc I was having a sinus problem. I'd wake up in the morning with a pain around my left eye. It would go away when I got up and my sinuses drained. "No" he said, "it's not sinus, it's a cluster headache". When I argued the point he condescended and ordered both a brain and a sinus scan to prove he was right. Next visit he checked me over as usual without mentioning the tests until I asked what the results were. "Sinus" he muttered.
