“Pain Check”

"Pain Check"

Hi Friends,

The other day, it rained consistently the entire day, causing the relative humidity to steadily rise to around 100% and stay there.

My body responds very poorly to humidity – and any of you also living with inflammatory issues might feel similarly. I get noticeably more swollen in my joints, much more stiffness that doesn’t shake off & even my plantar fasciitis likes to rear its ugly head when the barometric pressure dips low.

So I thought, wouldn’t it be neat if there was such a thing as a “pain check?” You know, like a “rain check” for when inclement weather messes with your plans. You could postpone obligations to a later time of more favorable conditions.

I think we should make it a thing.

love, Stephanie
