Best city to live

Sorry if this has been asked before but what's everyone's opinion on the best place to live for fibromyalgia. The cold and damp make me hurt so I'm thinking a desert location. Anyone have an opinion on San Diego or Tuscon? thanks!

I have been to Las Vegas 2 times recently and both times got instant relief and both times was in instant pain upon getting off the plane when I returned from Las Vegas back to Pittsburgh.  Try the Las Vegas area.  Weather is very consistent there.  My body loved the dry heat !  I cannot believe how much pain I am in within 5 minutes of stepping foot on Pittsburgh soil !  This is insane !

I too wondered this, researched and moved to Cabo San Lucus, Mexico to help my fibro symptoms. The first months, May and June were great. Thats where it ended! I have now been flaring worse than anything i have in the past due to the hurricaine weather off the coast. I cant wait to get back to the states. I have come to realize that every place is going to have its good times and bad times and im going to have to find a different variable to alter unless i want to live in a climate controled bubble.

I seem to think that living in a place that rains a lot may be the answer because there would be less pressure change.  How did you feel living in Portland?
