Guest guest Posted March 27, 2005 Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 For the last 4 days, I've been hurting worse than I can remember, and it's all over. Maybe some of the reason is the low pressure that's been slowly moving out of New Mexico. I wish it hurries along, I have life to live. Has anyone else had this problem, or am I just lucky?

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2005 Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 Saturday and Sunday were very painful for me, today I am in a little pain, but definitely can tell the difference!! The cold front moved through and it is supposed to be in the mid 70's today. THANK GOD!! It would be interesting to chronicle the movement of storms across the nation based on our pain levels!! You had pain about a day or so ahead of me, and those on the East coast are going to feel it today while we are recovering.. Interesting!

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2005 Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 Dennis, Skeptics argue that there is no connection between weather changes and increased joint pain, but a study done on osteoarthritis sufferers proved otherwise. It is believed by these skeptics that it is our psychological state that affects our perception of joint pain. Cold and rainy days keep us indoors and we are grumpy and focus more on our pain. We don't get outside in the cold rainy weather, so we don't get enough exercise. We lay around and get stiff. The study done shows that a drop in atmospheric pressure does indeed increase pain in arthritics, so we can finally say it really isn't just in our head. I didn't know how much weather affected me until I moved from NJ to Florida. Now of course the skeptics would say that since I'm swimming every day, it is lifestyle changes that make me feel better, and I'm sure that is part of it. But I can feel more pain when storms are approaching, so I am still a weather barometer! I hope the weather gets nicer for you and you feel better soon. a On Mar 27, 2005, at 10:51 PM, Dennis W wrote: > For the last 4 days, I've been hurting worse than I can remember, and > it's > all over.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2005 Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 When I was a young adult, I had Bursitis in my shoulders. It was so bad at times that I couldn't brush my teeth. I had to use one hand to raise the other and shake my head back and forth, but it worked. Back then, I could tell the weather 3 days in advance. One time when I was in Labrador, two sales and service VP's were to leave the next afternoon by plane (since that was the only way in or out). I told them they weren't going anywhere because of the snow that's coming. They didn't believe me, but didn't go anywhere for a couple of days. A few years ago, I told my Rheumy that I was going to keep record of my condition as it applied to weather changes. I suspected it would change according to Barometric changes. There was no correlation for the 6 months I kept records, so we had no paper to publish. I think weather and pain go together somehow, but I can't figure it out.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2005 Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 HI Dennis, I think you sent your lousy low pressure here to Indiana! We've had nearly 2 inches of rain since yesterday and I'm aching big time too! I don't have RA, I have Dercum's Disease and FM, but the weather affects us the same way it does you. Today besides being at the computer, I'm spending most of the day reading and listening to the stereo. Yesterday's antics watching our grandchildren with the Easter stuff wore me out (they are 2-year old triplets and a 5-year old.) Hang in there, warm weather should be headed your way soon, Judi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
