Weather Change and Increased Pain???
I am stealing this post from Dale (dshobbies), where it is posted under Mark's (mmglobal) chest pain thread. Just curious what you all think.

 ) I totally feel worse when the weather is unstable. Here in Texas, it may snow on Monday, be 100 on Wednesday, rain on Thursday, ice on Friday and be in the 80's on Saturday. You never really know what the weather will do. When the weather is like this, I am in more pain than usual. I'm a believer in the weather and pain now. It would be interesting to know if anyone else has experienced this. Dale, I'm going to steal your post and start a new thread about it.

We just started having a switch in our weather, going from warm over several days to cold and rainy today, and I definitely feel it. Though this whole week has been bad, today was worse.

Kathy,
I never believed in the weather thing until after this surgery and every time we had a rainy day I stayed in bed. I guess I will be a believer now.

Funny how you go through life too busy to actually observe unless some illness or disability sidelines you and you have no choice. After 2 years of watching life go by, you just naturally pick up on 'things'. Then, the drugs take it all away!

Living in the cold climates for many years I swear that weather plays a significant role in how we feel. High and low pressure systems reek havoc as does the cold and damp of Winter and early Spring. I love staying warm in the cold Winters we have and have the clothing to go out in anything. There's no such thing as cold, just not enough layers of the right clothing.

oh my aching joints
If it were just my back which it isn't at the present nor has been for a while but rather my hands, knees and feet that have been acting up with weather changes.
I'm heading off for a slew of labwork tho because I am so cold much of the time unless I'm boiling hot. Mentalpause must go on forEVER!
