My "ramblings" were specifically aimed at the episodic phenomena.
Also, the more I learn about this, likely a hell
of an speculation, I starting to think that Chronic
might be a different condition than episodic. By this
I don't mean one is worst than the other, or my pain
v. your pain stuff. It is interesting that the more
becomes known the more the subtle, or even obvious
differences divide things such head aches, i.e.:
migraine v. cluster. I am sure that a one time
both probably were clumped together and categorized
as one, perhaps even as degrees of sinus infections, lol.
Also, it would be unreasonalbe to believe that chemicals
are stopped in mid-air (as those utilized as pestizides,
fungizides, herbicides, etc) by an invisible wall.
Lets consider for instance DDT, which is even found
in mammals living in the North Pole decades after it
has been baned from use. The sands from the
Sahara desert - They too make their way acrros the
thousands of miles through the Atlantic. Airborn particulate
matter is nothing but at the whims of the wind...If you live in the desert,
does that mean that all of the state of California
is West of you (as in downwind from Pacific-born weather fronts -
one of the top 10 farming states in the US).
I am not surprised then.
