Rob,
i think the disconnect over stress is it's not the stress but how we assimilate it. some ppl can walk thru it, some freak out ... and there's a whole continum in between. i believe the key is tension (as in muscles) rather than stress itself. if your reaction to stress (or anything else for that matter) is to tense up muscles, i believe that stimulus will act as a catalyst for CH in those of us predisposed to it.
this hangs off my belief that the CH itself is resulting from cramped/strained/pulled/torn muscles in the neck.
i think what your wife says might absolutely be the case ...
