Despite the fact that migraines and clusters are two different animals, I hold the contention that it's not what you were barfing up that stopped the headache but the physical exertion involved in the act itself.
After I fight a 10 for a couple of hours, I too wind up sick to my stomach (from the pain & the cafergot). I also found that ralphing immediately stopped the headache. Didn't matter if it was projectile vomiting or dry heaves, the headache went away. That's what led me to try the exercise routine that aborted so many headaches this last cluster.
Luv you guys,
