Hi bj,
Triggers? You bet. Been living with the beast for over 52 years (I'll soon be 61) and over this time I have identified many. Number one on my list is MSG. It's in sooo many foods it's hard to avoid but during a cycle even a small amount will trigger a CH. Other triggers for me are perfumes, solvents, chocolate, hot dogs and sausage. Funny tho, smoking and alcohol don't trigger CH for me (does for almost everyone else so should be avoided) but I'm sure both make the CH attack more intense. Good luck.
