      I take 2x50mg Tramadol 1st thing in the morning (and 2 at night) - seems to keep the demons at bay!

    Yes. My mom has RA and We are experiencing the same. Dr said, use hot water for bath and drink in cold season. You have to extra take care. Always take medicines because in cold season, pain increases.
