Rls and weather

Post by Reverb »

Does anyone notice that their symptoms are worse during different seasons of the year?

Never seemed to make a difference to me, but many people notice. You know how some people like heat for their symptoms, some like cold? I think the seasons are similar. Some say summer is worse, some winter, some humidity.

Maybe it's related to being uncomfortable in general? Or maybe it's that you do something different in a season - like eat different food or do different activities that make it better or worse.

I had assumed maybe people are more mobile in the summer as a possible reason. I also don't seem to have a specific time--more like whatever time is more stressed-busy.

Seasons or temperature don't seem to make any difference to me.
