Mine is a much more mild case. I haven't vomited, but it gives me a headache and leaves me tired and achy all over. It happens every season of the year so it is definitely not heatstroke/sunstroke. It is a light thing because it seems to help when I close my eyes and it gets better when I can get into the shade. Some days the sun won't affect me at all, and other days I can't go out for more than five minutes. One thing that came to mind is a vitamin D overdose. Wikipedia says that sunlight exposure does not normally cause vitamin D overdose because the body has a built-in system for limiting vitamin D production, but maybe in some people this system is faulty in some way.
