Hi Jackie:
I have found that orange juice (any citrus really) is a migraine trigger, and this past summer when I had my latest cluster session, I had been eating a lot of fresh oranges and drinking a lot of grapefruit juice. When I finally woke up and remembered about the triggers, I stopped my intake of citrus in any form, and while the headaches did not disappear, I did not have as many. I did have occasion to have some chinese food during that last session and did not find it caused any problems for me. However, I was just coming down from a three-day session and was heavily medicated. My episodes are quite far apart, and this time, I decided to keep a daily journal so that I would remember the next time what had been going on in my life.
Cheers
