It is 72 degrees Fahrenheit in this room. I’m sitting here in front of a big fan and I’m still sweltering! Is anyone else this heat intolerant? Is it the MS, or is it just because I’m too fat? Inquiring minds want to know.

Just made the mistake of going to Wal Mart. The temperature was 86, and I thought I could handle it. UGH! Big mistake! I almost left my groceries while in line and left. Only four registers were open. I did not want to do self check out because I had a lot of produce and only two were open. There were also people in line for those registers. So, I waited behind several people with full carts. Wouldn't you know it? The register freezes up on the person before me. So I reload my groceries and go to another register. It looked like it was the shortest. Cashier was not 21. Lots of people were buying beer. So she had to call for help each time.
When I got to my car, the temperature was reading 90 degrees. I am now starting to cool down. My ac rarely stops. |

YUP! I can't handle heat. the AC broke at my phys therapy place one day when I was there and I ended up leaving halfway thru my workout because my skin was crawling and the heat was causing balance issues. If I get super hot my eyes and my balance and my skin crawlie feeling all act up at once.
Neurontin helps a little with the creepie crawlies, but I have been hiding in my house lately because it is just too hot to go outside. Thinking about ordering a cooling vest or just making one, it's just a vest with pockets for the ice packs. Try to keep cool.

Joelle, eighty bleeping degrees inside? Yikes! I’d be in really bad shape. That’s what I am in for when we go back. This time my mother-in-law will be out of the hospital, and she is always complaining about being cold. Of course she is 94 years old. I’m going to bring a heating blanket for her ‘cause I just couldn’t take that kind of heat. I asked my hubby what temperature they usually set it to, and he said that they never use it. I guess we can count ourselves lucky that the AC works at all. It is a really nice condo, but I’ll bet the AC hasn’t been serviced in many years since they never use it.

Count me in among you hotties. The heat really does me in, makes my left leg weak and if I get really hot, forget about anything, I have to lay down to rest.
Luckily I work in air conditioning but it still gets a bit too warm there but not often.
