Im am newly diagnosed CH during this cycle. Ive gone the seemingly fairly typical route over the last 4 or 5 years of being diagnosed with about everything but CH. This cycle I started with an ENT who decided it was "tension" and stress. Put me on antidepressants (Pamelor) for a month and decided maybe there was in fact something else going on. Finally decided he should pass me to a neurologist. I'd already made an appointment 3 weeks earlier with a neurologist knowing that this was a bit more than stress.
My two cents are that ENT's are as useful as an OB/Gyn for CH.
