I covered the science of mechanoreception which likely plays a key role in my sensitivity to earthquakes before and during their occurrence. I also meant to add that there is also peripheral pain and neuropathic pain. Peripheral pain is caused by an injury and results in the form of somatic pain. Neuropathic pain is caused by injury to a peripheral nerve that can cause spontaneous pain signalling in the absence of any stimulus - described as constant stabbing or shock-like pain. I have experienced neuropathic pain to some extent even though it wasn't necessarily constant. The stabbing pains I have felt in my side before don't occur often and are usually short-lived.
I am certain I might have some nerve damage - possibly from having endometriosis and years of serious stress. I'm also afraid I may have also injured myself in my late teens in my left side. It could result in the earthquake pain being disproportionately intense. However, it could have been other factors as to how it developed to this extreme form. I also have learned about electromagnetic stimuli before earthquakes and how it affects life forms. It has been observed in non-human animals. Humans are capable of being more sensitive to electromagnetic stimulus. Before an earthquake and during the build-up of stress, electronic charge carriers are activated deep below, called positive holes.
Positive holes have the unusual properties of traveling far and fast into and through surrounding rocks. As they flow, they generate ultralow frequency electromagnetic waves. When they arrive on the earth's surface, they ionize into the air. When they enter the water, they oxidize into hydrogen peroxides. So, there are chemical processes that occur in which living organisms are physically affected by. During the build-up of stress before an earthquake, processes that occur in the crustal rocks lead to the activation of highly mobile electronic charge carriers. These charge carriers are able to flow out of the stressed rock volume into surrounding rocks. Such outflow constitutes an electric current, which generates electromagnetic(EM) signals.
When the positively charged and highly oxidizing charge carriers arrive at the earth's surface from below, they build up microscopic electric fields, strong enough to field-ionize air molecules. As a result, the air above the epicentral region of an impending major earthquake often becomes laden with positive airborne ions. Medical research has shown that positive airborne ions cause changes in stress hormone levels in human and non-human animals. This is a big part of why I feel what I feel. It also is simply from a building up of energy and stress levels from the ground below that pumps into my body, causing pain and pressure in parts. This goes back to mechanoreception. Baroreceptors may also be involved.
I figured out that when it comes to detecting impending distant large quakes, I feel a high frequency vibration that is very subtle, yet triggers some excitement. I become more energized. Subtle, high frequency vibrations would inform me of a possible impending big earthquake somewhere on the other side of the world. The more faint the high frequency, the further away it is, I figure(size could also be a factor). When it comes to a surge in activity in my surrounding region, I feel a higher frequency, especially if it is from impending small quakes and feel very energized along with some pain.
