I noticed that my weather forecaster icon would go from sunny or partly sunny to rain within hours of first feeling the fatigue and aching. It is so consistent that I often tell my wife a weather system is about to move it, and she will confirm it. So, I bought about five more different brands of weather forecasters, and I would say that they confirm my symptoms at least 95% of the time. I don’t know what all factors they use to make their forecasts of rain or rainstorm (with lightning), but whatever it is, my body tells me from three to twelve hours in advance. I would be interested if anyone else has noticed a relationship between their aching and weather forecasters signs of bad weather coming.

Just recently in Southern England we have experienced more than 10 weeks of above average summer temperatures and drought conditions. My pains and aches have been totally absent. 2 days ago it rained and the temperature dropped by 10 degrees and I woke up to my winter condition.
Winter and summer I walk my dog for 5 miles regardless of pain and I am active all day outside in my large garden often recording over 20,000 steps on my ‘fitbit’ so my exercise ‘regime’ is similar in winter as in summer and regardless of weather conditions. This sudden change from 32 degrees to 19 degrees-from hot and dry to wet and cool has proved to me the theory that aches and pains are subject to weather conditions.
One other example- a year ago I ruptured the cruciate ligament (ACL) in my right knee which caused excruciating pain but still attempted to lead a normal life. Naturally at this time my activity level was reduced but I still walked the dog and did what gardening I could manage. 3 months after the initial injury I went from a ‘normal’ English summer to Sicily where it was hot and dry. I continued to walk long distances in pain. My knee began to improve rapidly over the week. Mt friends were amazed.
This convinces me that weather/temperature/barometric pressure etc must play some part. What I don’t understand is how I could retire to bed after a 32 degree day and because it rained in the night, wake up with a headache, painful sinuses and a stiff and painful back and for good measure twinges in my 95% cured knee. I was in bed, not sleeping in the rain!

But when we travel to Nigeria, she is free from these pains and discomfort. We decided to take note, and came to the conclusion that her pain or lack of it is definitely related to geographical location.
