  1. Next step Cluster Headache reports. It will be interesting to see how this gets spun as the usefulness of these alternative treatments are documented. The caveat at the end of the study emphasized the controlled conditions and drug purity. Went out of their way to discourage use in the natural state. Sooner or later the value will be documented in such an irrefutable way that no one will think twice about considering mind altering drugs to address an altered mind. It a positive thing and if you look there is almost nothing concrete published regarding negative effects of naturally occurring psylocibin

  2. The link between low pressure changes or just pressure changes in general has never been proven. Most non headache suffering health care providers state it does not exist. Most of us who experience CH or migraines know that it does. Predicting frequency and intensity knowing the pressure is going to rapidly change is not really reproducible. In the end I don't think changing locales will help that much because you might eliminate a trigger but the condition still exists and hits will occur. When I researched this myself the migraine community had a list of "best places" to live 20 Major U.S. Cities with the Least Barometric Variation (days per year of >= .20 changes) Honolulu (0 days per year) Miami (4) San Diego (7) Los Angeles (7) Tampa (11) San Jose (14) Sacramento (18) San Francisco (18) Phoenix (22) New Orleans (22) Jacksonville (22) Birmingham (29) Houston (29) Atlanta (37) San Antonio (37) Austin (37) Memphis (44) Las Vegas (47) Little Rock (48) Charleston, SC (48) Not surprisingly, it is the southern cities which have the fewest days of variation. The “worst†list reinforces this theme: 20 U.S. Cities with the Most Barometric Variation (days per year of >= .20 changes) Augusta, Maine (128 days per year) Rapid City, SD (127) Montpelier, VT (117) Bismarck, ND (117) Boston (116) Colorado Springs (113) Denver (110) Billings, MT (109) Providence (109) New Haven (105) Cheyenne (105) Anchorage (104) Detroit (102) New York City (99) Buffalo (98) Minneapolis (98) Omaha (94) Chicago (91) Philadelphia (90) Baltimore (87) At the U.S. State Level, here is the complete list: Hawaii (0) Florida (14) California (18) Alabama (27) Louisiana (27) Mississippi (28) Arizona (33) Georgia (35) Texas (45) Tennessee (46) Arkansas (46) South Carolina (48) Nevada (59) North Carolina (60) Oregon (61) Kentucky (62) Missouri (68) New Mexico (72) West Virginia (73) Oklahoma (73) Washington (75) Illinois (78) Virginia (78) Indiana (80) Utah (81) Ohio (82) Kansas (84) Maryland (85) Iowa (85) Idaho (86) Pennsylvania (89) Delaware (89) Wisconsin (92) New Jersey (96) Colorado (99) Michigan (101) Minnesota (101) Alaska (101) New York (102) Nebraska (103) Connecticut (106) Rhode Island (107) Wyoming (107) Montana (108) Massachusetts (111) Vermont (112) New Hampshire (115) South Dakota (119) North Dakota (120) Maine (127) Source:https://www.securevideo.com/blog/2013/10/07/avoiding-migraines-resulting-from-changes-in-barometric-pressure/
