I'm happy to find this here but sad theres no response because I have the same 'thing' as your husband.
I can only handle about 20 minutes in direct sunlight before I get a migraine like headache and start throwing up. The vomiting doesn't stop until I've passed out from exhaustion, then once I wake up I'm fine but this generally takes 8-24 hours.
You're right that it's not dehydration because it happens so quickly and I drink a lot of water anyway. It seriously feels like my brain is cooking in my skull but my body temp doesn't rocket and I'm not covered in sweat. It's all head related.
I'll keep an eye on this message board, hopefully someone can add some insight.
