Default Polar Vortex & Weather Change (pain)

I've been having a difficult few weeks since it got so cold. Besides the usual numb feet, I have been experiencing a lot of pain behind my shoulders and down my back. I think they are the fibromyalgia pressure points. Generally my flair ups are few and I don't take many pain meds but I've been taking small doses of flexeral along with tylonal. I'm on Warafin so I am limited. Anyone else experiencing this. I have a heating pad in bed ready for action. today I woke up feeling like I was going to die with shoulder and back pain that also gave me a head ache. I was able to get it all under control, but it makes me appreciate those of you who experience this day after day.

Do you watch the TV weather?

Last Monday HLN weather (I watch this terrible network a little bit ) does a good weather early in the morning.

The weather guy explained 5 LOWs sweeping across the nation all week. That it is a MAJOR issue for people with chronic pain problems!

I recall one day either last year or the year before, when 5 lows were stuck over the nation's map for a few days! I was having alot of pain from that situation, as I recall!

LOW pressure usually causes me grief, as well. I see lots of posts on the various forums here about it.

Sorry for you, my friend. I use aspirin for it when it comes, as that seems the most effective, for me.
