So I've noticed that my body aches tend to really flare up when it rains. Does anyone else have this problem?

It never ceases to amaze me of symptoms that make no sense. So I am looking for a list that we are able to share. The one that got me was my hair hurt. I could barely brush my hair. Even to touch was like razors a fybro symptom.
