Last weekend we had some sunny weather. My partner was out doing some heavy duty gardening. I was feeling rough so I asked him to get me a chair. I sat watching progress in the South facing end of the garden, I must have been there a couple of hours. Well my joint and body pain has improved so much I think it's some kind of miracle!
I do have awful arthritis, probably due to untreated hypo for donkey's years. I have always noticed an improvement in pain in the warmer weather.
I now fully intend to sit in the sun at least once a day (when we get some) I can't believe what a blast of D3 has done for me. I'm a redhead so intend to do this very carefully. Like a lot of Hypo sufferers I spend a lot of time indoors which doesn't help at all. But I can definitely shuffle into my garden. Another positive, as I now live in a village is everyone who goes past has a chat! So a double whammy!
How I relate to you Helen, have not had a holiday for 11 years but have thrown funding caution to the wind and booked a week in Spain in June as so desperate for sunshine, there are mud baths nearby too! Am pleased to hear your joints felt the benefit last weekend, lets hope there's more this weekend too.
