More mucus in low pressure weather pattern

Posted by spider109 @spider109, 1 day ago

Has anyone else found that they seem to produce more mucus in their lungs when the weather pattern where they are is considered Low Pressure ie: Cloudy, rainy, snowy etc. I have been fighting BE for close to 5 years now and must say it seems to me that my worst days for mucus are days that are low pressure days, and of course high humidity days. This seems to be one of the very few consistent symptoms for me. Is there any science behind this, or does anyone experience this also.

I'm responding mostly to bump up your question. I hope others see it.
I added "scholarly" to a google search of the question and took about 5" to look at abstracts. It sounds like changes in barometric pressure is associated with higher rates of hemoptysis and sinus issues. The brevity of the search could have missed more specific answers though. though.
