Every 10th episode is a special one, where Tami answers YOUR burning questions. Our first listener question is one that Tami hears quite a lot: "Does the weather affect fibromyalgia?" Listen in for some of the science behind the answer, as well as how our own bodies may know things that science hasn't figured out yet.
Key Points
- "If I'm in a windy place for just a few minutes, it leads to so much pain for days."
- "Normal room temperatures are not normal for me. Whenever I sit in a class, listen to a lesson or a lecture, I feel cold and that starts to cause more body pain."
- When we talk about "weather", we are talking about a lot of things. We are talking about if it's rainy or dry, what the humidity is, if the sun is shining, if it's cloudy, what the temperature is, and along with it, there are things like barometric pressure changes. The term "weather" actually represents a lot of different things!
- How does the weather affect our fibromyalgia symptoms? How can you help your body feel better, regardless of the forecast?
