Anybody experiencing increased dizziness, headaches, fullness in your head, any other symptoms these days?

i don't know whether this has to do with the weather change, but found it quite striking to notice (this is my first storm coming up since surgery).

maarten,

I've been having severe vertigo the past 2 days and I'd like to tell it where-to-go!

I, too, have been REALLY loopy since this weather moved in.  I'm much better in the house than out in the cold and wind, though.  Step outside, I'm in orbit.

Hey Maarten,
I am in Seattle but i know for sure when we had are snow and wind storms here it got really cold and my symptoms seemed worse. i couldn't go outside to play in the snow with my son because my ear and face on my AN side hurt really bad. I know you guys are really getting nailed up there. My folks live in PA and they are getting nasty weather to. Hang in there! Stay warm! :)

Yep cold weather makes head loopy....pressure fronts set off headaches.....I'd imagine snow would do the same.  Hats were a def right after surgery when it was cold as my head throbbed.

I have been trying to figure out why I was feeling worse than usual. I am relieved to think that it may have just been the weather.
