Does Anyone Feel That The Solar Flares Happening Lately Are Affecting Them?

I’m having a bit more aura/seizure activity lately and wondering if they could be connected.

Just as a reverse-cynic here: I'm thinking that magnetic field changes may have effects that we don't understand as far as epilepsy goes. No reason to think that you're not seeing an effect, but no reason to think that you are either. Interesting question.

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member pretty sure he didn’t mean that though

no... that's cause if you get the solar flare today... it will hit earth in about a week. it has to take mile to get from the sun to earth. the 2nd thing is solar flares can not touch you cause of earth atmosphere. we have many bubbles of protection and solar flares stop at the 1st bubble... i think the the ionosphere (the outer most bubble).

If it is the solar flares, then it is a post reaction for me because I have had one everyday since Sunday and yesterday and today, I’ve been lightheaded and had spasms.
