Cold weather relief found
 

I live with heating pads next to my computer, bed and easy chair. The worst part was going without heat in the car or while working. I have long standing RSD in my shoulder and arm....11 years. The only true relief I have is from heat. For years I hauled around a 12 volt jump starter for cars with a built in converter for AC power so I could run a heating pad in the car or on the tractor. Lately I found a lithium ion battery operated shoulder brace made by Venture Heat. They also make them for backs and knees, plus they make heated clothing for those who work outdoors, ski and snowmobile. I am able to keep a couple extra batteries charged at all times and I can't begin to tell you how much this has helped. I see them in some of the high end catalogs like Sharper Image and others but you can go direct to the company and buy them. Good luck and stay warm. PopPop
