    My right knee is a pretty accurate weather forecaster, especially in the winter months. I bashed it up one too many times when I was younger.

    Nate - hope things get better for you in the future.

    Don't count on that. I have 10% for my back.... an injury that happened on AD and had made me maybe 50% if that. Was enough to discharge me even though I could do my job just fine.

    Seems to be a bit better today.

    I am supposed to start running skidder next week so I'm hoping that won't beat me up too bad. CAT 525A, so at least it's not an old timey unit.

    Nate please look into this further. Joint pain and chills, especially night sweats, are hallmarks in most of over 200 rheumatic diseases. Pain killers arent very effective for these, but there are other treatments that help one feel better. Wish you were "gooder"

    Also, is the pain in your hands feet knees symmetrical? Meaning both right and left hands etc? Or is it one hand this week, and the other hand next week? Another clue is if said limb feels a bit better after using a bit when waking in the morning.

    About the same in either hand, foot, knee, etc.
    Yes it gets better an hr or two after getting out if bed. Some of the reason I hate going to bed is I know I'll have to deal with the pain/stiffness in the morning.

    Not doing too bad today.

    Nice and sunny, about 65* outside, couldn't ask for nicer weather. Did rain buckets this morning though.
