Several years ago my oldest sister was living in Michigan and was having alergic reactions, runny nose, watery eyes, hives, irritable bowel and general tiredness. She was always bothered by pollen allergies but this was different and unexplained.
After several doctors visits and dozens of tests the diagnosis was she was allergic to changes in the weather! If it's sunny for a few days and then changes to rain or vice-a-verse she will have an allergic reaction. It is worse in the spring and fall as the big changes happen. The prescribed solution was to move to Nevada where there is only one kind of weather, HOT and DRY.
I give this background as a lead up to my issues. I've had excessively watery eyes and runny nose that seem to occur in conjunction to changes in the weather. Now that we are getting the big flip into winter I have been feeling just yuk. Not sick, just blah.
I think I'm following my sister's diagnosis. Now all I need is to win the lottery so I can move to a more hospitable climate.
What say yee girls, does the weather not just get you down but make you physically ill?

Hi Beth,
A very unusual diagnosis indeed!
Idon't have any issues with allergies. I did have Hay Fever as a kid but that disappeared during my teenage years.
Love and hugs, Stephanie 💖
HI Beth use to have a bad allergy when lived up North since being down South in Texas not a smudge of allergies go figure. Understand how it is. You right the weather can do many things plus the humidy in different parts of the states or world. Wishing the best during the winter months on all those symptons saying have now.

It's funny how some people grow out of allergies and some grow into them. As a kid my best friend lived on a farm but had severe hay fever. He had to get shots all the time, especially before going out to bale hay. Fifty years later and he is fine and even takes part in old fashioned thresher meets. Meanwhile now I have to hide inside if someone in the neighborhood mows their lawn.

That's horrible Beth!
Wishing you a better solution than moving… or alternatively, you winning the lottery!!!
Love and hugs, Stephanie 💖
maybe some over the counter meds or maybe dr could prescribe you somthing for the winter.

Beth, Winter weighs me like a Stone. But mostly mentally! A warmer climate is a nice thought! Hugs
Hi Beth....
I'm sorry you have this problem...I must admit, it's something I haven't heard of, until now....
Mind you, living in England, we can get half a dozen different types of weather in ONE DAY !!!!
If you win the lottery, you shouldn't come here🤣......
Hang on a minute....the way the space flights are going, you could hitch a ride to the moon.....the weather is pretty constant there!!....but on second thoughts, don't take your DJ show up there....I hear the club's have no atmosphere at all😂😂
Huggs Beth, I really hope you can get over this problem....if I win the lottery...I will get you to a better climate.

Grace, Thanks for the smile!! 🤗
Hi Beth
Not so much ill, as SAD - seasonal affected disease disorder, and not as bad as some, it would seem. There's an energy level drop, and a tendency to hibernate.
Being retired, I used to be able to just swan off travelling and chilling in SE ASia for the worst of the UK winter. Seemed to work 😉
Perhaps I'll be able to do it again, but not this winter, let's see where covid goes.

I’d get a second opinion.
Weather may be causing changes to other things in your environment, like mold growth or different species of flora pollinating. But to say that the weather change, itself, is the cause of your maladies sounds a bit loony.
Now, on the other hand, SAD is real but I’ve never heard it causing allergic-like reactions, more of just a general feeling of downness.
But nobody likes gloomy weather.
Hi Beth:
Sorry to hear this. You both have my sympathies.
Your changing season allergy isn't that uncommon, really. It's not the weather change per se, but what the weather does, like the changing winds that scoop up pollens and stuff.
I've suffered from seasonal allergies all my life. Hate cutting the grass! Thank god I'm not allergic to lycra!
However, the winter season is a godsend! It gets really cold where I am in Canada (much like Michigan). No pollen and most buildings have engineering strategies to deal with mold.
I don't think one needs to cut grass in Nevada? Been to Las Vegas and to the Grand Canyon with the family. Both places are beyond spectacular!

I love living in a warmer climate now Just not so hot as to cause my makeup to run
Grace, you are too much! I was laughing so hard at your reply that I almost fell out of my chair!!
