Yes as long as I cover up or use factor 50 sunscreen I feel so much better ... Woke up this morning feeling stiff and sore opened the curtains and it is raining... I love the warm weather

Warm dry weather is best for me. When it gets really hot I become ill. I am in pain and swollen all over.
It would be nice to have a chance of suffering some hot weather! 
It's all been a bit grim this year, so far.
I don't like extremes of temperature. Warm and sunny with a cooling breeze would suit me perfectly, ta very much, as very hot weather makes me very tired and achey, and my feet get puffy.

i use to be out when the sun was out years ago and always said i was made for the sun, but now i cant sit when its really hot ( i live in scotland and 10 degrees is hot ha) so no many hot days and i also like it now when there is a wee breeze none of my friends can believe im not out when its sunny x
I love it warm ive been in so much pain yesterday n today coz its been cold were I live x
I sat in the garden yesterday and the skin on my hands was burning and so painful
If you are on an an anti depressant anbuma many of them make us burn very quickly I always sit out in the garden now its warm either in the shade or with factor 50 sunscreen on

I am taking fluoxetine been on it since around 2005.i thought I might have lupus due to symptoms I have-but my GP said he tested fro lupus last year.news to me!!it was 6 montsh ago-things change.rheumatologist suggested I ask for referral to dermatologist.

just had phone call from hospital today to ask if august 15th was acceptable fro my op.was so hoping it would be in the next few weeks.have booked my dogs in to kennels fro 3 days..said I could go to another hospital but too far away.
Do mention this to your doctor. Photosensitivity (allergy to sunlight) can be caused by some meds as VG said, but it is also a symptom of some autoimmune diseases like Lupus.
I think the rheumatotlogist might have said this to me when I contacted him recently but have deleted his email.my dr said I dont have lupus based on blood last sept he never told me of.yet I do have some of symptoms -scalp condition,nasal ulcers(?),red skin -butterfly rash on face.
thankyou for acknowledging my question.when i went to tenerife last year the heat really affected my body to the point of i couldn't hardly walk i was in so much pain,i couldn't even walk up a slight slope for the pain.i had what i describe as lumps appearing over my body which i think most of the pain was coming from,it was so bad i honestly thought i was going to die or something would happen i could not wait to get home.i have been waiting for the same thing to happen here so the doctor can sort out what it is but we haven't had a summer yet although i have had pain during a short blast of summer,i'm hoping if it makes any sense to replicate the same.the problem is my partner is dying for a holiday but i keep hanging out because of my experience on hols,i feel guilty he works hard and needs a holiday.jacksiex
Warm and dry suits me, winter when it's cold is just TERRIBLE for me but I don't do well if it is too hot, don't usually need to worrying about that!
Mmm. I keep changing in this one. Like others on this thread, I used to love the heat. In the last previous years it seemed to really help with my fatigue when we had those lovely warm springs, but this year I'm still needing to sleep every day and my foot is hurting. I think it maybe the humidity rather than the heat that is to blame. Certainly dry, sunny with a pleasant breeze is best.
Oh and I only use a low factor cream - I've got hold of a Factor 6 this year. Sun blocks or high factor creams prevent us getting our Vitamin D - which is associated with Fibro (Vit D deficiency).
Anyone else experience this?
is anyone else the same?
Does anyone else sweat excessivly
anyone else have diverticulitis diesease?
TMJ. Does anyone else suffer?
