Joint pain? Blame it on the rain.

I've noticed an ankle I fractured once, aching before a big rain event hits. And out the blue I can muster up a headache, and then wham, 12 hours later a cold front comes thru. Mmmmm, coincidence? You decide.

I did smile at the last paragraph, at the "chronically ill" bit. I think my husband would be tempted to put me in that category....almost. LOL Yes I've had my share of aches and pains......

I have Rheumatoid arthritis and I can tell when there's a storm coming :-) Cool damp weather is the worst for me so Florida fits me just fine. :-)

It doesn't happen every time, but sometimes when it's raining my back really lets me know it! On those days, it gets really difficult to sit up. :( Not today luckily, because it's not even raining.

BTW I'm gonna be off and on from here on but as of last night, I'm back for a while.

I can tell when a cold front or rain is in the forecast.. I played catcher in softball for a few years, and my knees ache terribly when the weather is about to change... and it changes from knee to knee.. Last time it rained my left leg was sore, so next time my right one will hurt... Im too young for this sh!t!

I have had both arms broken at the same time and they really bother me in the winter or right when it is going to rain.

Every time one of these hurricanes comes close to Jacksonville, my back starts killing me.

Low pressure systems really hurt my back. My pain medication won't even touch it.
