Joints and storms

JenHB

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone else's joints are playing up? There was a massive thunderstorm here last night, more are forecast for today and I suspect it's quite muggy out there.

Thanks!

Atmospheric pressure. It does affect RA.

Hi @JenHB

I find that when the weather is hot /humid and stormy as it has been over the last few days my right knee and hip have been quite stiff and achy. Also my legs below the knees have been feeling very heavy and my energy levels have been very low. Today has been a little cooler with a cooling breeze as well which has helped somewhat. I don't know if I prefer the warmer/humid weather or the cooler/wet weather as both tend to affect me. Sometimes you just can't win😏

Take care😊

Hi @JenHB

I often wake to know what the weather is like before I get out of bed, cold, damp, wet and sometimes hot and humid all affect my Arthritis.

Love n hugs
