MSG..or...Why does my head feel like it is going to go all Vesuvius?

Stepped out for lunch today and went to my favorite restaurant downtown. Ordered some Pho', which most of you may know is my all time favorite lunch. Rather than adding the usual condiments (oyster sauce and chili paste), I went for the beef flavoring instead. Not 100% sure that it is MSG enriched, but I am guessing that this headache is more than just regular sodium toxicity. Feels almost as though some 10 foot giant is trying to using my head as a bowling ball: index and middle fingers gouging my eyes and thumb hooked up through my soft palate into the back of my nasal cavity somewhere.

At least the egg rolls were good.
