Interesting that you should mention that. We've been having records lows and

beginning to get some rain again. I've been horrible all week following a

terrific days several days ago. I was so optimistic that day and then the very

next days I plummeted about as far down as I could go. UGH. Also with the

rains the humidity is going way back up and the molds and mildews which are my

worse allergens are coming back. Allergies had been really good and now they

are bad as well. I feel 100!!!!!! And, near tears!

I always flare in the spring and in the fall, but my fall flare usually

comes after we cool down. I started with pain in September due to the

exceptionally high ragweed pollen in the air, it had me aching all

over. Then we traveled which had me in flare type pain for several

days. Then a day at Six Flags over TX riding roller coasters, standing

in lines, let's just say I took a prescription naproxen each day for two

days to recover from that.

But my fall flare usually doesn't happen until we get the 'cold november

rains' and that hasn't happened yet. We're 80 today.

The mold and fungus allergens make me flare bigtime! I hate that.

The extreme weather changes don't do our bodies any good. I think that

is why this time of year is common for so many flares. I don't flare as

much in mid winter or rarely during summertime.

I am with all of you too. The past few months it seems that I have

just gotten worse. My doc has switched my meds several different

times. I just started lyrica last night, and I am praying that it

helps. My neck and shouders have been just terrible. Today has been

really bad. I have sat in front of this computer at work all day

long. Between the stress from work, and worrying about where the

money is going to come from for Christmas this year I am about to go

insane. All I can think about is getting out of here, getting home

and taking a long hot bubble bath and hope that it melts some of this

away. (Hey we can wish) I know I have asked this before but I did

not get a response, but do any of you have alot of pain in your arms

and hands. Lately my pain there has been terrible. Well back to

work now. Maybe I can make it another hour and a half. Hope ALL of

you as well as myself will soon have a little relief from this

monster!!! Hugs to all!!!

I HATE weather changes. Not only do I feel them before they arrive, but I

feel them while they're here and on their way out. As for molds and fungus.

I have to do a load of was at a time (with large break in-between) because

if I don't my ears get plugged up and I start to lose my voice. Sometimes

I'm ok if I fill myself with my allergy meds.

I feel them coming, too! When a front is coming with a line of storms,

I'll start to hurt all over once it's an hour or two away. Or if we

have a low pressure system over us, I'll ache all over.

And driving from here to Colorado (big difference in altitude) I was

hurting ALL over by the time we got to NM.

Yeah, it is wierd. It seems we do all cycle kind of the same. We deal with the

everyday aches and pains all the time. But then, all of the sudden, here it

comes full blast and practically knocks us down. I wonder if the atmosphere has

something to do with it. We are all spread out across the country and out of

the country. So isn't this wierd.

Love ya all,
