Stess is also a big contributor to inflammation. Beware stressful events in your life, or work stress creeping in...it will cause flare-ups of your arthritis. Also, I find I am more sore when I am close to the Hut days.

The only advice I have for you during a flare up is....be kind to your body and be patient with your limitations. That....and know that it *will* get better, even though sometimes it feels like there is no relief!

Oh....and keep moving! Movement and physical activity is the best remedy I know!
