Thanks - I think you have a good warning there not to get to wrapped up in finding The One True Answer To Everything Wrong. My brain has a habit of always trying to find 'the larger picture', the initial cause in a chain of cause and effects, and it would be too easy for me to get running down a dead end that looks like it unifies it all.
But dammit, this just makes sense so far... :}
Ah well - test, retest, check, recheck, and hopefully one day I'll have an idea about what the cause is, and how to treat it, instead of just reacting to symptoms all the time.
I'll have to check out the calcium link, thanks. (Although that doesn't explain why sugar, protein, salt, and coffee perk me up and make them go away... :/ Hmm. Calcium ions are used for regulating cellular membrane permeance, and salt changes that osmotic effect radically... curiouser and curiouser...)
