I met Dr. Diamond when I was at the Clinic. She knows her headaches and certainly is not bought and paid for by 48 Hours. She probably diagnoses five new patients a day, so I'll take her word for it on this one.

According to the books cluster people don't get nauseated from their headaches and don't trigger on anything besides alcohol. Yet we know some of us do (and that stuff about ruddy orange-peel skin in the books is bologna.) Well, it's also true that there are a lot of differences between migraineurs. Some people do get up and move freely about the cabin during their migraines, and others have told me the only reason they don't is that they are too nauseated. Some migraine suffers have no nausea and have a regular pattern of headaches.

I write this note to try to quiet things down, not stir them up. I'm saying it's possible they were migraines.
