I’m having a major flare up since yesterday. And I noticed that the temperature rose like 10 to 20 degrees, from 40s to 60s high. I’m wondering if that is the reason why my meds are not working. Anyone have same experience?

Members overwhelmingly confirmed that temperature changes trigger flare-ups, with many describing increased pain in their joints, muscles, and bones during weather shifts. Several members identified cold, rainy weather and changes in barometric pressure as their most significant triggers, with some noting that hurricane season and fall months bring particularly severe symptoms. A recurring theme was the unpredictable nature of flares, with members offering gentle encouragement and solidarity while acknowledging that even increased medications sometimes struggle to manage weather-related pain.
