I feel like I'm thawing out now that is warmer weather. With small fiber PN will warmer weather help me more than a cold climate. I'm not using my wheelchair as much if I don't overdo it. Can anybody relate to this and have moved to Fla. ect.

I find I feel best between about 50 degrees and 85 degrees.
Anything higher than 85 and my feet start burning. Anything cold and I hurt and get stiff (hypothyroid issues). High humidity is hard for me too. Some PNers have specific temps they prefer. But most of us get increased pain and other symptoms when the weather changes quickly with LOW barometric pressures coming in. I think Florida would be agony for me. Lots of storms there, and high humidity.

I live in Texas. It gets hot and humid for a few months in summer. I just stay cool inside and all of the shops/restaurants are cool so it is fine.
Fall, winter and spring are perfect. Depends where in Texas. It can get very cold in west and north Texas but I am in the s. east. Florida is simular but less cold in winter. All season except summer are great! |

I'm just like Mrs.D -- cold weather is awful. High humidity is bad too, and I live in Michigan where the humidity is terrible due to the Lakes on all sides. Summer is best, unless it gets into the mid 80s to 90's which it does often in the summer. Also, barometric changes raise cain with me.
 Seems like my feet are always cold, and I've had my circulation checked too, and it's fine -- but the feet STILL are cold.  Oh well. At least I have feet, right? God bless and take care. Hugs, Lee

I'm in Florida too. Summers are hot and hotter. Humid, yeah, that too. Winters? Ahhhhh
Even when its cold here, for us, maybe in the 40s at night, I keep a heating pad on my bed for my frozen feet. I turn it on low, it has a timer on it, goes off in 2 hours. Its easier for me to cool off than warm up any day.
