I have severe tn pain when the clouds get gray and also when it rains. I have always been curious about
how other people react to stormy weather. I will leave my part of the discussion at that because I'm at the library and it's late.
When the barometric pressures drop, I start to get zaps and burning/tingly feelings in my face.
Stormy weather slays me, especially in the hours as the new front is moving in, and big changes happen quickly.
Sometimes calm, stable, overcast days are my best.
But many other factors come into play as well, how much rest I’ve had, how much talking I’ve done, if I’ve been drIving, all kinds of things. It’s always a combination. The weather is sometimes the tipping point.
Barometric pressure drops are my kryptonite. We had rain roll through night before last and I’m still pain for it. To add to my fun I have a dog with severe storm anxiety so he has to be drugged with Trazadone and Xanax and wakes my dad up because the master bedroom closet has become his “safe place” lol. Anyway, to stay on topic, I’m having one of my worst pain days since my mvd 3 weeks ago and I blame the barometric pressure. I kept taking maxalts because I thought I had a migraine on top of the TN pain but it did nothing so I guess it’s all TN pain. Thank god I live in Texas! I know droughts are terrible, but they are better for my pain.
Definitely a factor!
The weather totally screws with my flares. And lately we've had tornadoes in the mix. The latest was Friday. I was in bed almost all day yesterday with pain. Today I feel like a wrung out dish rag.
Happens to me as well. Weather fronts that approach from the south west seem too be the worst for me. Flair ups from this can last for days, almost constant pain. I have learned to dread the weather forcast.
