I would like to clarify my statement about "anything we put into our bodies". By this I mean food, food supplements, or lack of (causing nutritional deficiencies), as well as medications. It is also possible that we were born with the difficiency or the ability to absorb certain foods, proteins etc. I also propose that an imbalance (cause not yet established - maybe high /low levels of certain steroid hormone(s)) anywhere on the endocrine feedback circuit will have a domino affect not only on other endocrine ports but the entire body systems.
Just a note regarding chronic clusters. Is it not possible that this is just one headache that is still ongoing? That it has its own high and low settings that responds to it's own micro environment as well as the state of the macro environment of the entire body?
Then from a immune system view, could you regard these headaches as an inflammation out of control as in rhumatoid arthritis?
