Sinus Problems and Rain/Storm headaches! - Sinus Problems Message Board

Hi there! ive had sinusitis (spelling?) for about 2 years now and prob had post nasal drip for about a year. My problem is, when a storm is about to come and the pressure changes in the air i get the worst migraines! Pressure all around my head and i just have to usually take painkillers and lie down in bed it really sucks. Ive read around that this occurs due to the barametric readings dropping/rising and because my sinuses are blocked up.. it is hard for them to repressurise with the outside!

Does anyone else get these? And if so.. have u found any cures or better ways of dealing with this!

Thanks in advance.

I'd be curious to know the answer to this too. I don't get migraines, but I feel really off prior to a storm. Headaches, tightness, dizzyness are my deal. Although now that I'm being treated with allergy meds I am better, I still suffer prior to storms. My allergist and ENT both said some people are just human barometers. Lucky us!!

I get really bad headaches before it storms, though not to the point of migraines. The worse my allergies are at the time, the worse the headache.
