Yes, I have used the Epsom Salt baths multiple times, but I didn't know why. My fiance just said that I should try it one time, and it did work. Now I know that others do as well.
The space heater has come up a couple times, so that seems like the way to go. That will be on the next shopping list. I live in Las Vegas, and the weather is so extreme. It's either 40 degrees in the winter or 120 in the summer. This will be my 1st summer here. So, hopefully the heat doesn't impact too much. The cold REALLY bothered me.
Thanks again for the advice. I have been feeling pretty good, no pains, and no ms yet. I will let you know how the US goes on Fri.
Thanks,
Heather
