...without the benefit of a neurology education, or even having read Goadsby's book, is that genetic switches and arteriosclerosis have some belivability as agents of change in cluster attack cycle duration and frequency. Huh?
..I believe we inherited the aberrated hypothingamajiggy.
..I believe the hypothingamajiggy gets switched on under certain unknown conditions by DNA.
..I believe that the plaque in my arteries, helped along by my genes and by eating a lot of lard, has lengthened the periods of remission and the severity of the attacks.
..I believe that I won't understand anything Dr. Goadsby has written about clusters.
..I believe that a preventive drug, based on the brain function altering qualities of LSD and psylocibic veggies will be produced, but maybe not in time for me to buy stock in.
..I believe that Jack should volunteer to try the nutectomy on Jonny.
