@stallen Steve - your comment about movement is dead on. The more I can move, the better I feel, and I do this under pain in back and knees. Living at the beach in NJ, I experience tons of humidity and temperature swings. Dry non humid days, I feel a huge difference. Cold damp days like in November, uh-oh. Stiffness sets in and decreases movement not good for PN. I turn to an inside stationary bike as well. Move the best you can on days you can. Some are good, some aren't. It's part of having PN. Ed

I have to watch times of the day, too, if I want to minimize my arthritis ache. For years I've been using a homemade 'timetable' to be sure each day I get a reasonable amount of day-job work done, but also sufficient exercise, household must-dos, grocery shopping, etc., and still have plenty of time (evenings) for relaxation. I mention this because the portion of the day I must be most careful not to skip or short-change is that middle portion, my so-called 'physical' portion – or I'll end up paying for the skipping or short-changing with a long evening of limping about, muttering 'Ouch!, 'Ooof,' and 'Grrr!'
