Yes, I like the way they can just stare at you like you are totally crazy. I have been having a lot of scalp pains, shooting and stabbing all over my head for awhile now. I asked my Oncologist if it could be the shingle pain that I am having all down my right side, could I have pain in my scalp from them..he gave me that look and said .."I guess"...duh. I remember on my first meeting with him, he asked me if I had any symptoms that I felt I should tell him. "I have gas all the time", I told him. Needless to say, I got that "are you crazy stare" from him then. Hell, I didn't know that farting all the time wasn't a symptom of something more serious than just a bad diet..lol..sherryg683
