 I think it may be the cure. Plenty of sun for Vitamin D support. Automatic salt sitz bath by jumping in the ocean (for those raw bottoms). Plenty of fresh fish and fruits off the trees. And stress free.
   What do you think?

You may be on to something here... Whenever I go to Nags Head I feel absolutely wonderful (my girlfriend even asks why I can't be like I am down there at home)... I can only imagine how much better an exotic island might be.

yes i agree, i have crohns and psoriasis but how can i live on???? if i had the money i was already there.

It would be heaven! Cold and damp weather really gets to my joints, love the summer. My psoriasis always completely disappears in the sun. Last St Patricks day we were sat out drinking in the sun, I doubt its going to warm up that much for St Paddys this year but it gives me hope that warmer weather is just around the corner!

My luck ,,,I become shark food. In fact blood in the water would definitely ring the dinner bell for some big Bull Shark and he would probably take a big bite of my ,,,ah, hmmm, where it hurts most. No more sitting on the beach after that.

My bleeding tush would be shark bait too. Oh well at least I would not need lyposuction there.

Been there, done that.
I spent my life on tropical islands!
The only way I could rebel was to move to Canada to go to University!
hahahahah
boo to beaches and sunshine
Give me rain, clouds, and real seasons any day of the week!

Sign me up too! Just want a supply of potable water and sunshine. I think everyone is getting tired of the cloudy days and cooler weather.

I dont mind living in Iceland.

But when I go to warmer places I feel SO much better. So maybe one day I will move to spain.

Well I'm in too...just got back from a cruise and the day at the beach was nice...to bad a day of daiquiris after that reminded me why strawberries are bad :-)
I would miss the snow if I never had it again, but my joints would be oh so happy. Can someone help me back a thousand bottles of spf 50 sunscreen?????

After an unusually cold and snowy winter, sign me up. I don't mind winter normally, but even I'm feeling like some sun and warmth on my skin. And fresh, just-out-of-the-sea, seafood would be fantastic; never had seafood or fish that fresh before.

Before we all move to Crohnie Island, are there plenty of toilets there?  Or are we going in the ocean?  And can we import toilet paper -- or are we using palm fronds?? shocked shocked shocked

The winters are getting harder and harder every year. The wife said lets get the heck outta here and move somewhere warm when the house is paid for or we win the lottery.
AAAHHH! the Virgin Islands are calling me.

Seriously tho, what if you are on to something here? Wonder if a sun lamp would help at all?

My daughter's Vit D level was checked. Came in a 40, which is within normal range of 30 - 100 ng/ML.  So it's a low normal, but I've been supplementing her with D3 for about six months prior to the test. I would assume that impacted the results.
