There is a condition we discuss on PN sometimes called cryoglobulemia. This is where peptides of antibodies are overproduced in the bone marrow and come into the blood and thicken it. When it thickens, the blood stops moving well and extremities get cold and suffer. When it is hot, they dissolve and the blood flows more normally.

But I don't think a fan or A/C would be like winter is for this condition. But I am going to get tested for it when I get back.

It is a possibility for your original question however.
I also can move better, I can do things I need to do because it's like a sauna in NYC. Everybody outside is croaking and I can do stuff. I always figure it's because I have degenerative joint disease and can't stand the cold, but my body LOVES the heat.

Who cares, when I can move.... I MOVE!!!
