I can't take a hot shower. My shower is lukewarm. Sounds funny but that is all that my body can stand. It's the same if I soak my feet with Epsom Salts. The water is lukewarm or the feet go crazy. I need to be very careful as I can't feel the water temperature that well either. Really warm/hot water would wipe me out as well. It can relax the muscles way too much. An OT told my support group that. True for anyone with a neuromuscular syndrome. And I only do a very short shower.
I used to wash my hair in the shower but quit that long ago. I cannot stand there that long or for that matter be able to without hanging on to a bar. Sitting isn't really an option. I do the hair washing in the sink. I'd love to have a walk in shower. Maybe some day.
I do love the feeling of a clean body after the shower. It can be soothing at that.
