A touch of fall is in the air where I live – nights are crisp and cool, mums are in bloom, and my feet will not warm up!
It’s another aspect of fibromyalgia to which I’ve had to adjust. In the spring and summer, my hands and feet get puffy and throb. In the fall and winter, they’re so cold they ache and cramp. Pre-fibro, I was always hot and hated to have my feet covered, but now I have a drawer full of super-soft socks and slippers to wear around the house. If I forget to put them on, I usually have to use a heated rice bag under a blanket to warm them up!
