Q

Grouping of primary HAs including cluster HAs, paroxysmal hemicrania, SUNCT (short-lasting UL neuralgiform HA attacks w/ conjunctival injection and tearing), SUNA (short-lasting UL neuralgiform HA attacks w/ cranial autonomic sxs), and hemicrania continua

A

Trigeminal automonia cephalalgias

Migraines w/ aura are not included
Pts often misdx as sinus HA and given decongestants which do not help
