Oxygen prescription
I was finally able to get an appointment with a neurologist. Who confirmed I am suffering from cluster headaches and the first thing he mentioned was using oxygen as a treatment. But he doesn't want to give me the prescription until I know it is an effective treatment for me. He suggests going to the ER or an urgent care during an episode and tell the Dr. I am suffering from a cluster headache and need pure oxygen. - Which brings up a couple problems - Theres no way I could get myself into a vehicle to get there. And if I did, I'm almost sure by the time I was admitted, the cluster would be gone. I discussed this with him but was still reluctant to prescribe.
Anyone have any ideas for a work around for this?
