Guest guest Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Today on Kim Komando's website she posted the following link concerning the connection of weather and pain. Thought it would be of interest to everyone. Feeling the weather----Kim Komando Being National Arthritis Month, I thought we should talk about aches and pains. My grandma used to predict the weather by her sore wrists. As a child, I didn't believe that was possible. Now, it's a known fact that the weather can affect people directly. Today's Cool Site allows you to get more than a weather forecast. It will also predict how much that weather will cause pain. Simply enter your ZIP code. Pain is measured on a numerical scale. A U.S. map is also available to track the Aches and Pains Index. You can change the map to check for air quality, allergies and other health issues. An explanation of how the weather causes pain is also on the site. When explained, it seems very logical. I guess my grandma could sense the weather after all.

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2008 Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 I have had stills since I was 16...that was yesterday in 1972. I used to tell people, that weather had nothing to do with it and that it did its own thing. It was a surprise party from ..... you got it. But now, the stills is not active but I get flares of all kinds of rheumatological problems. I will not bore you. But weather does make me stiff..very stiff and sore. Maybe it is old age rheumatism..or fibromyalgia...but...a change in weather does irritate it. I just noticed this this year at the tender age of 52.
