Most diseases give you the best place to live, Does fibromyalgia also have the best state to live??

I have to say, and only my opinion, it is hard to live anywhere when you have Fibromyalgia and other diseases, like RA, OA, Spinal stenosis and scoliosis, whether it’s the sun ☀️ , humidity, rain 🌧️ dampness, air conditioning, you can’t win. They say going to a desert to live would be great, dry temperatures, that would not be fun I don’t think. lol 😂 . With my diseases, it doesn’t matter where I live, all the above are everywhere, which makes it difficult to live with. You have no other choice than to live with it, I have, going on my 33rd year in August, I am in pain everyday, medications can only give you little relief, there is no cure.

Hello Cherokee61. I lived in Maryland previously and PA as well. Both areas would cause more pain that was really unbearable in winter. I moved to Florida. The heat is easier for me. However we do get a cold season too. When that happens my pain levels are high. I think the temperature can also bother you if you have other autoimmune diseases. Like lupus is harder in sun.

I definitely agree with you. With colder weather really makes me feel the pain. I'm in excruciating pain when it gets colder

Yes, I live in PA and we always travel to warm places in the winter. It's so much better for me.
