Guest guest Posted April 30, 2002 Report Share Posted April 30, 2002 Hi Everyone! Our family went on our first official week-long family vacation last week and I am just amazed at how good I'm feeling! Can't believe I felt so bad a couple of weeks ago (achey joints and fatigue). So, I'm just wondering if there has anything to do with the warmth of the sun? We were in SC and had beautiful weather all week. Here's where I'm puzzled...I STILL am feeling GREAT and I've been back in Toledo since Sunday. The weird thing is we came back to cool and damp weather. I thought this had contributed to my pain in recent months. Hmmmm? I'm scratching my head now wondering A.) what I have and B.)how it is manifesting itself? I did get another scleritis in my eye the week before we left. That makes it 6 times in 6 months. So, I'm doing the steroid drops right now and see the eye doc tomorrow. Do any of you go for long stretches with zero problems???? I'm so happy to be feeling GOOD, I don't want it to end! Have any of you heard of the microbe theory and that these diseases are virtually non existent by the equator? My neighbor's daughter has Lupus and he is very knowledgable about her condition and thinks that there's truth to this and that hot tubs and heat kill the microbes. Do any of you live in a sunny & warm climate? If this is the key to my feeling better, I'd seriously consider moving down south! Sorry, I'm so long winded...I am full of energy right now and couldn't wait to ask all of you some of these things. Here's a picture of our family at the beach in Hilton Head, SC.
