Washington Post Medical Mystery: Severe Chronic Sinus Headache
The Washington Post on November 13, 2007 published a story of a gentleman who suffered from a sharp headache due to Sluder's neuralgia centered in the "anterior ethmoid neurovascular complex".
The amazing thing about this story is that the patient himself figured out what was causing his headache by finding a reference on a microfiche he found in a 1963 article in the British Journal of Laryngology & Otology.
Read the story here.

There was a subsequent correspondence to this article (periodic migrainous neuralgia) you can read here.
