So I guess the conclusion is that there isn't much correlation with weather. I am in the central Pacific (Marshall Islands) where it is always comfortably warm and usually humid. Flares come and last. To me stress may be significantly linked, but I don't know. It seems that there is always something to stress about. Are ASers less prone to handle stress well?

I saw one posting at http://bbs.spondylitis.org/ubb/Forum1/HTML/000844.html that would link it to nanoviruses. Interesting if this was all the result of being infected by bugs, even though very small ones! Anyway the author of that posting is undergoing the drug campaign and reports some improvement. He also says he was told to not expect to see much improvement for 4 months so he is only half way there. I am wishing him the best!
