The day I became a scarlet woman. For years I slept with the bedroom windows open - good, healthy fresh air! However I have recently experienced excruciating pains in the upper parts of both my arms, worse in the arm nearer the window. Doubtless this has been caused by the 'fresh air' i.e. draught. So habits have had to change. Windows closed, warmer bed wear, an extra layer over my arms. Yes, that should stop the pain getting worse. But how to alleviate the pain?
