Pain And Changes In Weather...Am I Alone????

Yes Rachel, choosing to ignore it works until your PT looks at you and says, "The weather really is going to change, isn't it?" As he starts doing MFR therapy on your neck...and then notices your hands have swollen too.
Today my 7 yo grandson said his muscles "aren't happy" when it gets chilly. So we went outside in sweatshirts, warmed up our muscles, and did an hour of running around and yard work.
It's amazing what kids can accomplish when you teach them to use special adult tools like loppers and challenge them to show off their muscles! Two little boys, ages 4 &7, filled a yard waste bin, cut 1/2 bushel of kale for their tortoise, and assorted other chores in an hour. I think I owe them a trip to the old-fashioned arcade for games this weekend.

This discussion has been enjoyable; people may now understand they are not alone. I think the worst thing mentally is believing you are unique. As Rachel has christened it our "superpowers", it would be far better if we could make money out of it! Maybe 300 years ago, we may have been seen as a weather oracle, and people aspired to have this talent. I make a little humor out of the condition, but to those who suffer, it is not fun.
I also suffer similar pain when flying, which is all about pressure. I had zero pain in the northern Amazon jungle as I indicated previously, for years (I was probably worried more about pumas, snakes, and malaria, lol). This time cemented that pressure changes were the definitive cause of the pain. I was in Dubai for a few months with no pain, then flew to Australia in September (my home country), and here I go again; 3 or 4 days before rain, the pain returned.
