Ahh..All those negative ions floating in the air with the lightning and strong winds.
I really don't know, I'm just full of carp..But it's a theory :o.. I'm sorry you're not feeling so great. Something to look forward to, the weather here has been really nice the last couple of days, and I'm assuming it's moving in your direction!

It's a little better for me now, but I used to be able to predict a storm better than the news.

I could tell you if the baromatric pressure dropped less than half a point, because I'd get a migraine. And I'd know six hours before a storm hit that it was coming. Great info for BBQs.

;)

The migraines are fairly well controlled now but still I feel it. My rt arm goes tingly if there is going to be lightning. I never have that sx any other time. Several hours before the storm, I may get a headache, usually get vertigo, have trouble walking ( kind of doing that drunk walk and talk thing) and spasms and pain get a bit worse.

Me too, Brainy. I hurt all over when a storm is approaching, but it's the constant change in weather, that kills me. What did Trish call it....Bipolar weather..LOL!

That's what I called it Sally. We have all been experiencing weird weather patterns. Although, I have to say ours has been fairly predictable with a few unexpected cooling trends.

Brain - I am right there with you on weather predictions. My sinuses give a good 24 hour warning before it hits. We are walking barometers. LOL.

Sally can tell you, ours has been *predictable* too. In Ohio, you can predict it's going to do everything within 2-3 days. You'll have a low of 30, a storm and need to turn the A/C on all in one day. Predict anything other than a volcanic eruption or hurricane and odds are you'll nail it.

:p

That is exactly how I felt the other night. Although I still am not feeling great. Not like the other night, it hit me hard and fast. But I still am dizzy and numb.

Isn't that strange! Maybe we should be for hire to predict weather for outdoor parties and BBQs?!?! Well I'm glad I'm not the only wacko!;)

been noticing my headaches are worse with the storms, had not noticed if any of my sx are will watch and see

I awoke feeling much better, this morning and I can tell you why. The weather is exactly the same as yesterday...70s, low humidity and sunny..:)

How long will this last, you ask? As long as the weather stays the same, I say..:D Please, Lord, at least a week..(on hands and knees.)
