oooooww, yah - I have a friend with rsd and it is horrid! I am sorry you have to deal with it. And the gravity point is very intriguing.... During the summer I take my children to the creek behind our house to let them play. I have the full use of most of my body most of the time, but not my arms. But I have noticed that if I let my arms dangle in our creek I can wander around picking up rocks(small) and playing lightly in the water and it will actually alleviate some of my pain as the water supports my arms weight. Yah - if only we could live in the water - Interesting.... So you have noticed the correlation is between the low baromter points and your pain - do you know why the low pressure does that to us ??? What is the science behind it?

Also, for those who can answer/relate - does does anyone else feel particularly heavy where their pn effects them the most? My arms feel like sandbags.....

I have fibro, and PN, barometric changes get me too. I think when the air becomes heavier from the low, this exerts pressure on our bodies. "normals" don't notice it, but we do because all the nerves are so sensitive .

I have lived in many climates from MI to FL to CA and I am in 24/7 pain everywhere but in harsh weather conditions I do have flare ups in pain and symptoms that are worse. Each of the places I have lived I noticed with the different weather my symptoms of flare change whether it be frozen limb or severe swelling etc. All of course come with pain.
Fireball that is interesting comment about the pool. I say that about the bath.

I think the weather has a lot to do with pain levels of PN, when we have low pressure systems my legs seem to be in more pain and when it is too hot my feet seem to burn more, so we can't win either way. Such is life.
