The end of a hit

I have been reading about CH and it seems to me that we are halfway to understanding what happens to start a CH hit, but do we understand what happens when the hit dissipates?
I mean, does whatever starts the CH run it's course and the body just returns to normal, or is there a seperate mechanism where the body recognises the problem, and maybe sends a bunch of stuff to fix the problem?
I have always thought it amazing how we can go from pain ridden to PF in such a short time, and thought that surely the contrast during the transition could be measured and maybe imitated to abort the hit quicker.

You know...if anything has been written or studied on this particular phase of the attack, (bio-chemically or neurologically) I've not read it.  
 
I'd be interested in learning as well as you I'm sure if anything has been studied on the mechanisms of bioprocesses at the "end" of an attack and if this is something that can be duplicated to quicky abort one.  
 
 
There is many many theorys as to why they begin..but the process of how they end may be something to consider.

Yes and what about the outside influences..alcohol..seasonal..and so on. Lots to learn indeed. Lots of variables as well, just within one person.
all the best

Very interesting observation.  Sometimes it seems like the higher on the KIP scale the HA is the more suddenly it aborts itself, not more quickly but more suddenly.  I have asked myself that before too--how can it hurt like hell for so long and then so quickly, without any sign, abort itself?  It really makes you wonder what the hell is going on with these headaches.  What is going on that they can "vanish" so quickly?  If blood vessels are so inflamed, how does the pain stop so "suddenly" especially with some of the higher KIP scale HAs (at least in my experience).  Keep asking questions--you could hit on something important.  Star
