    Is the cold worse for this?

    Do you find symptoms are worse in the colder months? I'm trying to determine if that's what's going on with me (weather related) or if it's coincidental. I'm a stay at home mom, so the only difference in fall vs summer is the temperature or the fact two of my kids are in school. Until snow...

    How to deal with rainy days?

    It has rained here for the past 4 days in a row and I've been unable to get any exercise outside or even get fresh air. What is your strategy for these rainy days? The moisture makes my aches and pains really flare up. I can't stand this weather.

    Do you feel more fatigue in weather extremes?

    I seem to be affected a lot by weather. I often feel worse if it is very cold. The same is true if it is very hot. I start to feel even worse.
