    Can't speak specifically to your question...but weather affects all kinds of feelings. People with arthritis ache more in the cold, I get migraines when the barometric pressure drops...so I wouldn't be surprised if you noticed some kind of correlation with the weather.

    The weather affects me with everything from pain to numbness to chills. For some reason I just can’t get warm enough during the winter time and it has me feeling bad, some days I can’t even take a bath because I am too cold on the inside.

    Yes, but can't speak on BOT.

    Can't say about BOT but my neck sure gets much more stiff where they did a neck Dissection on both sides. Any time the     barometric pressure goes uo or down I feel it.

    Better than the Weather Channel!

    Like Tim and Bill, my body reacts to weather changes, especially in Winter. My neck and shoulder start screaming when a low pressure system is coming and I notice the numbness 10X more. I also find it's hard to get warm, even on warm days. Part of it is age but I know the treatment has increased caused an increased sensitivity.
