Rain

Does anyone else have trouble when it rains? If it rains a lot during the night then the next morning I don't feel so great. Normally extra draggy and a headache. Sometimes extra symptoms as a bonus. It took me a while to figure this out because I rarely wake up when it rains at night! Just curious if anyone has a guess as to why this is. Could it be the humidity? Thanks in advance for brainstorming help!

Hmmm Eve has seemed much

Hmmm Eve has seemed much more sluggish on the last few mornings when it has been heavy rain overnight...n ever made the connection before but will monitor that. Of Course it could just be that she is struggling to get over her hospital stay and being off O2 for the 48 hours but I will keep a watch Hugs hope you find some answers.

Hi Rachel;I really do think

Hi Rachel;I really do think rain has a big part to play with symptoms, I was in terrible pain last night.My husband pointed out that it was raining,but yes it was humid too, and I know humidity bothers me a lot. On the other hand a cold rain bothers me too, so I'm sure dampness plays, a very big part. I'm really glad you asked the question.....God Bless...Lori:)

I get headaches about 8

I get headaches about 8 hours before a storm rolls in. Wish I knew that before moving to Michigan from California. Where I grew in California the weather didn't change much or at least not quickly. Here it changes quickly and often. The barametric pressure change seems to be the cause of the problem, I just don't know why.
