Okay, makes sense. Then just have the air on. See if you keep
an fan and air both on I think its the same amount of electric isn't
it. I'm honestly not sure.

See we have both fans and air conditioners at my house because
I like it a little warmer it seems than Derrick or anyone else.

And my bedroom is also hotter, which is honestly because.
My air conditioner doesn't go in there. So I have a little air conditioner
on my head all year round.

Is this because of menopause?

I honestly don't know if its menopause or just the effects of having
had mastectomies. But it could also be from having the medications
from the breast cancer meds. Its honestly hard to say.

I have had fans on for a few years. Just I like the breeze in my
face also.

I made an appt to see the eye doctor on thursday. the other night I was so worried I started catastrophizing that something was really wrong and that I was going to go blind. I was amazed that I called so quickly for an appt. rather then hiding and staying with my fears. I am such a fearful person.Then for a while I was wondering if God was punishing me.

I am glad that you made the appointment and that you were able to get in so soon.
Has any of them said anything about cataracts?
mine did last time, just normal age related he said.
I need to go get a check up too.

I have small cataracts too.

And I need to figure out how to get in to the eye doctor.

Um, that is not new.

But not in my schedule it seems. I had to much else that was
necessary. As soon as school starts calming down it will
be in my schedule.

My apartment is the same way as yours. As soon as I turn off the AC the heat and humidity almost immediately comes back. I can only turn it off for a few minutes. I set it to "energy saver" where it shuts off at 75 degrees.

Like Donna, our AC never gets into our bedroom. And per our lease, we can't put one in there.

You should be able to apply for extra help with your electric bill. I don't know exactly how to do it tho. If you have a case manager you can ask, that would be best. If not, try going to the electric company's website.

I am sorry ladies who have a/c issues. We sleep with the air at 72 degrees. I like to snuggle under the covers and have hot flashes too.
Our a/c runs constantly, we set it to 76 during the day.
