You know what stats intrigue me the most? Remember in everything that you've ever read about clusters, it always says "most people who suffer from cluster headaches are heavy drinkers and smokers"???
Well, according to the stats that all of you have put in (138 people so far) 38% of sufferers DON'T smoke at all, and 12% of sufferers smoke less than a pack per day. That's 50% of people who wouldn't be considered "heavy smokers". There may go one "old school" stereotype.
According to the stats, 27% of us don't drink alcohol at all while another 36% of us only drink occasionally or only on special occasions. Thats 63%. The "heavy drinker" stereotype might be out the window too!
Interesting.......
