Dealing with Migraines Triggered by Weather Changes

Anyone that gets migraines with barometric pressure/ weather changes: what do you do when you know you’ll get a migraine because of inclement weather? It feels like I can’t do anything to help with this trigger.

My migraines are heavily triggered by weather changes. It’s hard to manage, but I try to take my meds before the pain starts. And giving myself face massages to drain my sinuses really give me releif. You can look it up online!

That’s a hard one to attempt to avoid, I try to stay away from any of my other triggers that I have, and get as much rest and water and nutrition as I can. If you have any preventative medication take it as soon as you feel the twinge coming on before it goes into a full blown one

For me it tends to affect my sinuses a lot with the barometric pressure so I tend to take some Mucinex to reduce the pressure to hopefully reduce the migraine before it comes. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t.

Mine come out of my neck so if I think of it I’ll have an iced gel pack around my shoulders at night to reduce inflammation there

I try to be preemptive- take Advil the night before, relaxing slow morning day of. Make sure I eat and take meds, etc

Oi. This is a hard one. When I know I can’t avoid it, I make a very calm relaxing environment to make it as easy as possible.
