Here's one possible site: Florida - Migraine and Headache Specialists Other leads here. An initial visit is pretty standard now, and not always a bad idea. It can give patients the oportunity to size up the doctor too, before too much time is invested with one who just isn't a good match. There are also some decent articles by goggling: what to expect first visit [specialty] Doc

Dr. Smith
Yes, I agree regarding the initial visit to a doctor. I think I have to modify the way I conduct myself in regard to what will be discussed during that visit. A patient should actually be able to have a free consultation with a doctor in order to decide if this doctor's servises will be the right one. Other professionals offers this. Yes, I will be checking the list, I actualyy looked yesterday, and I noticed one of the neurologist on this list was a neurologist I saw at the Cleveland Clinic some 2 years ago, recently after all my neuro problem started. But at this time, there were so many different issues, that headache were not adressed. And I did not know this doctor had as subspecialty Migrane. I have a question now that I am looking back at the origional MRI of brain: One or two findings were never discussed 10 finding "left posterior frontal lobe congenital venous angioma" and 2 " bilateral vertebral arteries impingement on the Medulla" I wonder if theese can have anything to do with the headache. All best wishes Synnove |
