consider:
"women don't get clusters" ... still being told to poor females today by the uninitiated - leading to the at least frustrating misdiagnosis of migraine for these poor ladies until they can find sincere medical help and opinions.
it is reasonable to assume that this is not a new phenom ... and it is quite possible that some of the older records (diagnosing migraine) may be cluster statistics instead - especially as regards relatives of the female persuasion.
there may be misinformation in the numbers ...
just a caution ...
pain freedom is a human right!!
