RE: The legacy economy failed me. So did government programs. But then Steemit came along, and things got better
Um so far nothin much I'm a beginner. But with cluster headaches situation I think we need to fund the treatments for it so we can find a cure. That sounds very awful, and I hope you do get better. Or better at dealing with it. It's very interesting reading many different peoples stories...
There are some promising experimental treatments out there for cluster headache. But funding is just a small part of the story. Industrial medicine is unable to cope with this kind of ailment, as it tends to be expressed in highly individualized ways, and require comparably individualized interventions. There are also institutional barriers to further developing some medicines which have been shown (in studies with small sample sizes) to be helpful for treating cluster headache.
