My Dr. tells Bill and I that all of the time. When I'm hurting, the barometric pressure is changing and when Bill's breathing is worse he tells Bill the same thing. Bill starts complaining about his breathing when it is changing and my RSD gets really bad.

I haven't followed it though to see to compare it though. It's changing now and Bill's having trouble breathing this morning.

Do you use Lidoderm patches? I keep them on my shoulders when I'm hurting and they help some but I will say when I'm in a full flare up nothing does the job.

If you read back on the old forum though, I would say you'd see many conversations about that. I just mentioned it in my post about Paula Abdul before I saw this post.


Debby's right I think it affects any illness. My friend has gout and she goes on about how much more she hurts.
