Hi Rita,

Thank you for sharing your migraine experiences with me. I do not have TMJD, but often wonder what the underlying causes are.

Wishing you a pain free day!

Weather conditions, including wind, can indeed trigger migraines. High winds are among several weather-related triggers that also include bright sunlight, extreme temperatures, humidity changes, and stormy weather. Many people with migraines are sensitive to these atmospheric changes, with over one-third of migraine sufferers noticing a connection between weather changes and their headaches. For treatment, there are several options available. These include prescription-strength NSAIDs, triptans like Relpax or Imitrex, and other rescue medications. Some people find success with beta blockers like Propranolol, which can be particularly helpful for weather-related migraines.

To manage weather-triggered migraines, try these strategies:
- Monitor weather forecasts to anticipate changes
- Stay hydrated
- Avoid other known triggers during weather changes (like alcohol or processed foods)
- Practice stress management techniques
- Consider preventive medications discussed with your healthcare provider

Hey Susan, I think you’d be interested in a place called Texas Migraine Center it says they get to the root of the migraine issues. They even say you don’t have to live in Texas to get help from them. I’m checking it out to see exactly what it entails. All it says is that surgery is not the way to go. They even say they have a 92% rate success. I think maybe you should check it out…nothing to lose but a migraine :-)

Hope you are having a great day!

Sorry I haven’t been online much the last few days. I’ve been out of the house and running errands and doing grocery shopping etc since the nerve blocks…I’m loving not having a migraine.

My migraines usually don’t change with the pressure…I didn’t say always…lol. I have gotten migraine because of it since the past 5 years or so. Dr right now thinks mine is the TMJD that is causing it now due to the migraine that never wants to go away. The tightness of the jaws, the clicking when I open my mouth, etc, etc. It has gotten my muscles in my neck so tight I can’t even “Feel” using the tens unit I’m using on high….just nothing no zapping or anything. So he says we have to go to the dentist to see about getting my jaws unlocked again. He said that along with the nerve blocks should do the trick. It’s warming up here in Texas right now so I’m not in as much pain as I was in.
