p8d Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 Hi everyone. Does anyone else get headaches from the sunshine? It seems every time I go out in the sunshine even with sunglasses and no matter the temperature I get headaches. Any one know why? Thanks.

Pistol Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 @p8d - Yep. In my case it is due to photosensitivity ( bright sunlight ) and heal intolerance, both caused by my POTS. I cannot go outside in the summer unless it is early morning or after sunset..Even with sun glasses on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jklass44 Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 Yes I am in the same boat. I honestly don’t go outside much, especially in the spring or summer months, due to the heat and the fact that I feel blinded even with sunglasses on. It’s crazy how many people on this forum seem to have some sort of hypersensitivity to bright lights and/or sound... It sounds like the only thing that helps is avoidance of said triggers.

Guest ANCY Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 Yes! Just about every time I'm outside, which isn't very much. I also literally feel like I'm burning on any exposed skin. Ive always had photosensetivity even as a child. Do you wear a hat? It helps me a little bit, still get the headache but not so immediate. Do you squint? I know I do a lot, even with shades on, which makes the headache worse... This summer I've been working on overcoming obstacles that keep me indoors so very interested to see what others say!
