Does your back or bones hurt when a storm is coming?
 
I hear load of folks say this all the time. BC (before copaxone) I used to suffer when a storm would head at us. My muscles tighten up, and its not fun. DC (during copaxone) it was there, but dramatically less. now that I am AC (after copaxone) I have noticed that the old pattern is starting to re enter the picture, and I forgot how much it hurt.

Can anyone else tell the weather based on the muscle activity in their bodies? :confused: or am I just weird? :o

Absolutely! I feel like a human weather vane. I get aches and pains a day or so before......the day of and a day or two after. I take Aleve first thing in the morning during these weather events, whether I'm feeling particularly bad or not, and it helps immensely.

Yes for sure and I'm sick of all this rain here. I need sunny nice days! :icon_rolleyes:

Kitt 08-17-2010 04:25 PM

Yes, I can tell.

The low pressure stuff really bugs me. I sometimes find myself begging for the snow, or the rain to just start! as soon as it starts, I find the pressure rises outside, and that brings great relief.

The advil/aleeve stuff works, but I hate that I live in such a tempermental climate area. Always a storm of some sort going on.

My headaches/pain intensify when the weather changes, big time!

The jury is still out on this for me as I've never really noticed tha pain worsening with the weather. The kick to the head is the nurses had told me about this years ago after The Wreck. My argument was "That's an old wives tale", but they were persistent with it.
Either way, I hope your pain is mild and passes quickly.

Yes, I can tell too when a storm is coming. I get very achy especially my back. I get this with extreme changes in temps. and humidity too. I think it's the change in barometric pressure that causes it.

I'm thankful for the rain we're having today, because we need it:), but I'm sooo achy breaky. :(

A drop in the barometric pressure is the cause. However, they call it a theory but there certainly are lots of people who can attest to it. And lots of the general population get the reactions as well.

my back hurts. I am going to lay down and eat popcorn while watching movies. yeah. that will make it feel better. :)
