Hi Sue I had a complex case last year and looked at various triggers including lifestyle factors (her diet at work was a major factor). I found the attached document very useful to understand this subject in more detail and if he has a scientific perspective he might appreciate a copy as well. Best.

These occur at least once a week sometimes more, but he states it is the after effect that is impacting on his work. He spends most of his time at a computer and has to attend lectures usually delivered by PowerPoint, which he thinks tend to be the trigger. He does not get them when on annual leave, so clearly it seems to stem from something at work. He has been seen by neurologists and has had a number of tests including an MRI which were all negative. I am off later to do a workplace assessment, but if anyone has any information that might help I would be most grateful.
