SAC6 AND RISING BAROMETRIC PRESSURE

I have SCA6 and am very effected when the temperature outside rises. I stay inside an air conditioned house but am still nonfunctional - extremely weak, off balanced and dizzy. When the temperature falls a few days later, my energy returns, my dizziness and balance improve. It's not the heat because I'm inside and hydrated. The only thing I can think of is the change in barometric pressure. I read one research study that said in hot weather when the pressure is high - the cerebellum shrinks. Does anyone else experience this?

Not a medical professional but it could possibly something to do with your ears (maybe allergies?) I forgot the exact name but sometimes when the little hairs inside your ears are irritated the main symptom is exactly what you describe.

Not what you're looking for?
