The humidity gets to me more than the heat, I think. Dry heat doesn't make me sticky. It's the moisture in the air that makes it so hard to breathe and hard to move.

Agree. I dread the humidity too. It also makes the eczema on my fingers flare up horribly (only in humid does my eczema come out).

I just feel weak and tired from this heat wave we're having.

I had a scare, when I awoke from my nap and was very warm. The A/C didn't seem to be working... I immediately called the serviceperson and he called me back. I told him about my MS and he said he could come out, but, because it's sunday, it would cost me.

While I was talking to him, the Air came backon, in answer to my prayer. I told the guy, I'd call tomorrow and set up a maintenence call. I think it must have been a brown-out and the air conditioner was only working about 1/4th power?

Anyway, thank you God!! I got a taste of how it would be for me without A/C and I didn't like it....was nearly helpless.

OK for now, signing off..

scary stuff Sal. I would simply have to go to the ER if I had no air. I am blind, nauseous, and feverish as it is, if you took my air, you might as well admit me.

I have been hydrating with plenty of water. (dont drink soda) and thinking about juicing. my tummy has been so wobbly lately that I figured I would be kind and give it prechewed nutrients.

I have double vision in my right eye today and fuzzy vision in my left. I am sure its a fever thing, but its freaky to have double vision in just one eye. normally if you cover one eye it stops, but not today!

We are going on vacation on Tuesday up to Stowe Vermont to the Ben and Jerry factory. The cabot cheese factor, and some other local oddities. We are bringing our bikes. This should be fun.

DS is having major trouble with this whacko girl, who is now so angry at him we are worried what she will do if left alone with him. He always has someone with him. She has been texting him stuff like "im afraid of you breaking into my room at night to try to kill me" and "I am afraid you will really hurt me like you did last time" WTH?? last time?? there was no last time. my child is a wet doormat! he wouldnt be able to hit a girl if his life depended on it. So we feel she is up to something, and either trying to bait him into a bad response, or make him look bad via text message for some odd reason. I told him to NOT respond. Not a single peep. Just nod in person and say "youre right" let her have her way every time. He is finding it harder and harder to be her doormat. So, August 5 cant come soon enough for all of us.

Learning a lot on this thread. Humidity is doing to me what it's doing to you. I feel awful...took pup for a walk yesterday & paid for it. And this headache...sounds like some of you are experiencing humidity caused headaches...maybe that's what's causing mine.

Hey, Debbie.....I have a headache, too! I call it the BP headache (barometric pressure). We're expecting rain today and tomorrow and my achy body is telling me it's true!
