Default Is your CRPS affected by the weather?

PLEASE VOTE IF YOU LOOK AT THIS!!!!

I'm fascinated by this idea. For me the link is really clear, and a friend of mine who has CRPS too finds the same correlation between weather change and more pain. We often find our symptoms change at the same time.

I seem to find my symptoms better in settled mild weather, and generally worse in colder damper weather. If the weather is changing from say sunny to rain things feel worse - recently when we had some major changes in pressure with storms I noticed a lot more burning and pain.

When I looked on the web, I found that barometric pressure changes and symptom change have been mentioned in some conditions, including arthritis and CRPS, but I couldn't find much specific research.

Just interested in whether anyone else has noticed this?

Bram.
