Any of you other geezers have an old injury that flares up when the when is going to change?

I severed 8 tendons in my hand about 12 years ago.
The past couple years it’s become really noticeable when the weather changes.

Totally destroyed my left hand/wrist in high school. Broke a whole lot of bones, lots of hardware installed, etc. Very reliable pressure change indicator.

Cracked my skull in a few places including through the sinus area from my nose to above my ear on the right side. I have a weather station with a display of pressure and eventually realized my right side sinus headaches correlated quite well with low pressure.

Slightly different, but I have about 20-25 pieces of shrapnel that are in my right thigh that remind me that they are there when it gets cold out.

I don't hurt all of the time but pain in my muscles at night correlates with barometric pressure changes that come with the cold fronts from Canada/ Alaska. I'm sure the foundation for that comes from the tendonitis from PMR and previous injuries from an active life.
