Glad to hear you are getting some answers. Migraines sure seem to have a wide variation of symptoms. My wife got migraine free in January of 2006. May 25th, a tornado hit our hometown and our sawmill building. My wife and the grandkids brought lunch to me as I was helping clean up. One of the kids gave her a half stick of gum. Within minutes she developed a migraine. A quick check of the label revealed it contained aspartame. That small amount was enough to trigger a migraine. I don't think she has had another migraine since then.
