Winter health issues

[HauntedMansionGeek]

With the winter weather well at hand, many of my MS symptoms usually flare up and so far that seems to be the case this winter as well.

It's only been a few weeks since the hard cold hit and already I'm experiencing the drop foot and some of the other mild annoyances.

Do any of you have chronic illnesses that don't far well during certain types of weather?

I'm trying to figure out how in heck I'm gonna stay physically healthy this winter......this could be a huge challenge this year. I just don't *feel* quite as in tune to my body as I have other winters.

Any suggestions on how to stay healthy while we get buried in the snow drifts? LOL

Sorry to hear that you are reacting well to the cold. I don't know what to suggest for you other than the tried and true vitamin C.

I have heard green tea is suppose to work. The way this years weather is going I have a feeling there will be a lot of pneumonia. It is down in the 20-30's and then back up to the 60's here.

I hope you get to feeling better and the winter treats you right!!
((((HUGS))) to you.

The cold weather really makes my Mom's lupus flare up. She just went and got a flu shot on the advice of her doctor becaue her immune system is so weak right now.
