Funny thing: I've been saying for ages that I've not had a single one over the last couple of decades, ever since leaving a particular job in which I started to experience crippling migraines quite regularly. Having watched this video, it seems that I may still be experiencing them after all, just with only very minor symptoms... and a complete absence of the most recognisable component, the headache.

Shame the condition is so poorly understood.
