Default First Summer with PCS

I'm wondering if others here find that their PCS symptoms are worse in the hot summer months. I'm particularly curious about headaches. Mine have been getting pretty bad this summer, despite upping my topamax dosage. Every day my head hurts.

A couple weeks ago, I saw my neurologist and he told me to exercise more. Well, I haven't been able to take his advice because the headaches have become so bothersome.

Any strange chance topamax could actually cause headaches? Or is this most likely a result of summer heat and humidity? I would hate to think my headaches are getting worse the longer I have pcs. Ugh!
