YES YES YES.  THis is difficult to understand.

Some think it has to do with the relative amounts of + or - ions in
the atmosphere.  I believe that it has to do with the RATE of
change of the barometric pressure.  Thats why i dont necessarily
have bad days with bad weather, altho' anywhere from several days
to several hours before a major storm i experience incredible
flare-ups and the subsequent depression.  Sometimes, when the storm
finally moves in, altho the pain is off the scale, i celebrate the
violence of the storm.. that it has *finally* arrived.

On a more practical note, it sure seems that a lot could be learned
about the nature of chronic pain from persuing this avenue of
research.,, possibly with some beneficial results.

seems intuitively obvious to most of us !!!

Cheers,
