This is In Today’s Dallas paper, I have said this all along based on my own journal log. Changes in weather and Barometric pressure trigger head pain, Face and headaches. Lightning striking within 25 miles of home. Studies speculate that electromagnetic waves an increase in ozone or fungal spores caused by lightning could be culprit.
Also a Chiropracter just told my sister “A fungus” can b responsible for TN pain? Anyone heard this ? I have been told several times to see ONLY. a NUCAA ? Upper Cervical Chiro Board Certified. You can find in your area by zip code.
Thanks for that info, Daryla. We all know it but its great to see “in print”.
Yes, low grade fungal infections can cause a host of neurological problems. If you suspect this to be the case, ask for a spinal tap (lumbar puncture). It’s a rather invasive procedure but I had one with no problem at all and after TN pain, it only felt like a mosquito bite when the needle went in. My results were negative and in the end I am glad I went for it.

Ps - is it possible for you to give a link for that story?
I know that the barometric pressure plays a big part in my tn being off the chain, This is the pain that has been so very constant for the last 10 days. My brain feels like mush. This is when I hurt to bad to move, to breathe to talk even to go to the er. My whole head is burning!! This is worse it has been since my last trip to the er about 10 days ago. The weather went from nice to super hot last trip to er,now it is 20 degrees cooler now then it was yesterday, the humidity is still above 50% so my head feels like its in a vice grip along with bone pain, the bar.p has dropped suddenly. The burning is so intense its hard to just sit here the throbbing of my ear and my eye my face that HORRIBLE PAIN THAT JUST WILL NOT STOP!! Everything smells terrible my mouth taste like ca ca! My teeth ache (yeah right) It's hard to breathe feels like I am breathing in a smoke filled room (not the case) Is this part of tn or just me? Smell, taste, is always like this when tn is totally out there. The pressure behind my eye is pretty bad, the burning of my lips my nose into the rest of my face and head.It 's so hard to even think, let alone think straight. I know I can't be alone when the weather changes how do you all keep your sanity? This is so scarey!! I see how I am starting all over with the same terrible pain I had 20 yrs. ago. I don 't want to go there again either.What do I do next? Right now I can 't even take care of me! PLEASE PRAY FOR ME! HUGS.Dawn
