Drat, that puts paid to that.
Diet? - something in the Chinese meals that you are reacting to the smell of / the ingredients? - if I had to smell those all day I would eat nothing but them!
Hm, I doubt it. I'm never near the kitchen and the food is in a sealed bag so never really smell it, nor taste it as I don't really like Chinese! It's frustrating hahaDiet? - something in the Chinese meals that you are reacting to the smell of / the ingredients? - if I had to smell those all day I would eat nothing but them!

Another longshot..
Since I started working at Chinese, there's no uniform so I can wear whatever. I usually wear a Mercedes flat brim hat. So for 5 hours a day. I wear a hat, which is reasonably snug
Any chance this could play a factor?
Yeah, it could, drop it for a week and see if there's a difference!Since I started working at Chinese, there's no uniform so I can wear whatever. I usually wear a Mercedes flat brim hat. So for 5 hours a day. I wear a hat, which is reasonably snug

Bit of a reach but some kind of allergy/intolerance to Soy or MSG perhaps?

A mate had cluster headaches for ages whilst at work, was fine when he was off, got put down to stress but long story short, when the requirement to wear a tie for gents was waived int he name of equality, his headaches completely ceased, pillock had his collar and tie so tight they were constricting the bloodflow to his brain

Are you sure they were cluster headaches? Often said to be the most painful condition possible? Also called suicide headaches because that's what people have done to end the pain?I didn't think anyone had discovered a firm cause of them yet.

I have had cluster headaches for 25 years. I must admit that our tie wearing friend doesn't sound like he had CH. The ""Cluster" in the name refers to the fact that they occur in a 6 week cluster. So, if he got one every time that he wore his tie, then I suspect it wasn't CH.I didn't think anyone had discovered a firm cause of them yet.
I have been free of them for three years.
If anyone has any questions, then feel free to ask. If I don't reply, PM me.
I had it well under control from about 2002.
On the "firm cause" there were rumours that brain damage was to blame. It was claimed that an MRI scan would show it up. The bit that controls the body clock was the culpurt.
