MDJunction to me

"All I can say is that this has been the best place ever. It has been six to seven months since I joined, and I have learned so much. I now believe in myself and accept myself on a completely different level. The people on MDJunction has been so supportive and accepting that I have been able to adopt it into my personal life. That has reduced a lot of stress in my life. Thanks to all." (bunny_fly)

Yes, the cold makes me hurt more. I think it makes our body tense up to try to stay warm, which ends up causing more pain. I can't even have the A/C blow on me in the summer, although I have a hard time remembering what that feels like right now. LOL

The Cold absolutely kills me, I wish Old Man Winter would go away

I went to my nephew's basketball championship game on Wed evening, on like 1hr 15 min long. They would not put the heat on in the gym. Brrrrrrrrr.... I kept my coat & gloves on but it didn't help.

It has made my pain so much worse, I can't function. I'll try & shower today, u can probably smell me

It seems like so many of us have similar problems. Have you been tested for raynaulds disease (one of the ANAs)? this actually turns your hands purple and white and slows diwn circulation too. Just another disease to worry about.

Most of my flare ups occur when the wind pressure changes and storm fronts come in. I suffered greatly during the hurricane season last year. Humidity has negative effects and so does cold. I have been racking my brain as to where would be the best place to live whenever hurricanes bother me in IN!!ha ha!
