A 17-year-old right-handed boy of Korean descent developed sudden onset of palpitations with a general feeling of tremulousness and subsequent flushing. This was followed by a thunderclap headache described as if his entire head exploded and the worst pain of his life. This was accompanied by vertigo, nausea, photophobia, dyspnea, and right ocular pain with conjunctival erythema and binocular blurry vision. The latter symptoms improved after 15 minutes.
