Definitely!!! IN the cold I stiffen up and feel like I'm ninety and in the hot I suffer from dizzyness weakness, chronic headaches and hypersensitivity, eyes ears and smell. Thats just me though, hope this helps :)

I seem to be worse when it's humid.I become very lethargic , not experienced winter .

My daughter has to wear sunglasses nearly all the time in the daylight whether its summer or the winter sun, but she finds she feels better in the heat.

I find high humidity very difficult to bear, but I think most people do! In the cold weather my aches and pains are really much worse.

I have to agree with both Tamirra & Suenmike. I wear sunglasses in Winter and Summer - mind you I live in Australia so it can be quite glary. The worst thing I can do is get really cold - I find it hard to warm up and the my cold feet are almost painful. It is actually funny the amount of things I do to keep my feet warm at night so I can sleep!

Absolutely! I have Behçet's which has caused my interstitial lung disease. When the weather changes my chest becomes extremely painful especially when I get up in the morning. Then throughout the day the pain continues and I stay extremely fatigued! I also notice an increase in joint and muscle pain as well.
