Another migrainer here. Had a bad one last saturday - the total body experience kind. Never could figure out my triggers, except certain chemical smells, like cheap perfume, or if I get heat exhaustion.
Up until yesterday I thought one of my triggers was weather related, as I seem to have migraines when a cold front passes through. So I thought the change in barometric pressure was the cause. Well, one of the guys I eat lunch with is a meterologist, so yesterday I asked him. He asked if I get a headache when I fly or ride an elevator up 6 or more floors? Um, no, why? Because the change in air pressure on that elevator ride is more than the change when a cold front passes through. Interesting. He did say there may be something else in play, but it isn't just a change in air pressure, because if it was, I'd be stuck on the ground.
