I noticed the full moon, and it didn't even register to me other than what a beautiful moon it is! I did pull an all nighter,though...so, it may have had an impact on me. Hard to say, my body does what it wants, whenever it wants..part of the by-products of CRPS.

I saw my psychologist today, over a one hour and 15 min visit..I was exhausted after the visit..and have slept off and on for the last 6 hours! I had not seen him since before I left for AZ. He is really a mahor comfort to me.

Default Full Moon

Kate, I do know for one thing that when the moon is full I do have a sleepless night. It might be my RSD acting up? However I do know one thing for sure the weather changes here really affect me! It can be anything from a thunderstrom to just temperture changes like going from the 80's one day than the next day it might be in the 60's. The winters here in Wisconsin are really bad for anyone who has RSD! I know that this sounds really terribly however I have been thinking that when my parents both pass away(they are both in there late 80's and my Mom has Alzheimiers dx) Anyway I know I have been thinking about moving out west somewhere where it is warm all year around.I live in an upper apt. here and in the winter when I have to go get food and bring it back here I have to climb up 18 steps to get to the top of my apt. where my kitchen,living room,etc is located! Beleive me when it is about -30 outside this is no fun at all! Kate do you have any problems with weather changes? By the way where do you live I forgot to look? Take Care! Breezy55

Hi,
When I saw the words "full moon" I immediately remembered a beautiful experience I had a few months ago...

My sister passed away two years ago...she was one of my soulmates..She lived in Colorado but we talked on the phone and e-mailed constantly and shared a myriad of topics. I had been looking at the moon trying to make a connection with her..I miss her.........
In my heart, I 'sensed' her convey this thought to me...

"Let the pull of the full moon ciruclate the swelling, and let the pull of the full moon pull away the RSD......"

It was a profound moment...maybe it was just my thought revealing itself, but it felt as though it was coming from my sister........
Just an experience I wanted to share with you....

And yes, in the winter, even here in Northern Cal. where it does get cold, my foot turns bluer and is much colder...in the summer, it swells like plump marshmellows...........and also feels like my foot's in a campfire !

We're all looking at the same moon!!!
