I actually moved states from MI to FL well actually CA in between because of the RSD pain increasing in the cold. I go frozen foot and the pain gets an insane went it is cold. I still have a painful life and like the severe humidity/heat is hard but still better then the cold.

Default Hi Kim,
It was warm here today. The breeze was good enough that I could take a walk but the sun is sure not my friend at times.

Carol, I spent two weeks in Ky. about 2 years ago and I felt great. I did get sick the second week there but the weather was perfect while I was there.

I too donot believe that the weather is better for RSD in one place or another. If that were the case we'd see more people from certain states do better then others.

The weather definately does work differently on RSD but I think it has more to do with the barometer changing.

Ada-Glad to hear you have visited Ky. If you ever come back let me know!
I do agree with all of your post as even friends have noticed that barametric changes seem to affect me more that temperature. Also you are so right-it would definetily show up geographiclly as well!
Fondly-Carol

Cold or hot makes my RSD worse. I am so glad you were able to get away and feel some relief...I wonder what my middle point would be??

Default Where is that?
Hi Kim,

Where exactly is the "Gulf Stream of FL?" Down by the Keys? I know that the rest of Florida wasn't that warm during the last 10 days, so I'm figuring it must be more southern? And no rain, how heavenly!

Thanks...Sandy

I am amazed at the difference the warm tropical air helped me so.

We all get so worn down from this beast, along with our everyday worries. I had a horrible time getting through this winter. I have always loved cold weather and snow; but this year got the best of me. It was very healing for me to just lie back and soak it in. I hope for all my friends here we can all find a "warm place" to retreat to when life gets too hard.

Thinking and praying for each of you.

Kim

Default Hi Carol,
I hope to come back down this year in Sept. I still have 2 sisters and 4 brothers there and too many relatives to visit. In Sept., we have a grade school reunion every year for everyone that went to that school. I want to come back for it this year. I will let you know when I do. E-town and New Haven is not far from Louisville.

It's raining here today and dreary. Just got off the phone with DianaA and it's the same where she is. My feet are cold and I have been freezing all day. I do ok if it's a dry cold but this is a wet cold today.

Ada
