I almost forgot the question. Oh Yeah......this only my opinion but I'm sticking with it...
Does stress have a significant relation to our condition? Yes. Clusters cause stress.
Let's rephrase the question. Does stress cause clusters. Not in my case. In over 20 years of suffering I have probably never had more than 2 attacks at my sometimes stressful job. 10 percent of the attacks start while kickin' back in the La-Z-Boy. 85 percent of my attacks start about 1 hour after falling asleep and hit the REM mode. Not much stress in the REM mode!
