I started back to classes yesterday. It was 90 degrees outside. There is no AC at work but I have a fan on my desk and there is usually a nice breeze blowing through so that is fine. AC is broke in my car, but I can deal with 4 / 55 (60) AC in that. (as of 4 windows down at 55 mph)

Well, I got into class and the AC was on - the first class I was fine but come my second class of the day about 1/2 hour into it. I started getting cold. My face started to hurt, then my arm and leg went numb and the pain started. When it started it only took about 20 minutes and my right side was a mess! I finally got up and slipped out of class. Went outside to warm up a little and then went to the book store and bought a hooded sweatshirt then went back to class.

The rest of the night I delt with the numbness, prickles, and sharp pain. It came on so quickly but took didn't go away quite so quick.

Wow Char....that sounds terrible! Have you had this type of thing happen before? I think I'd call the doctor so they can at least document it. I've never had that happen to me. I hope you're feeling better today.

One thought I had...going from no AC and warm to a room with AC and very cool could cause that reaction I'm thinking. Sometimes when I come inside from being outside and overheated the cool air seems colder than it actually is - just 'cause I'm so warm. Does that make any sense?

I do hope you're feeling better today.

Hey Char~ I always carry a sweatshirt in my car yr round. I can't stand to be cold while in a store or restaurant, etc. While I was in NC, the AC in a restaurant was so cold, I had to step outside into the HEAT. Then, when I went back inside, my body was so confused, that I just shook. I didn't have pain or numbness like you though.

I'm sorry you have had such a rough time of it lately. But, those college sweatshirts are usually cool, so you are now a preppy!! take care of yourself and keep that sweatshirt in the car.

Wow! You sound like a pickle. Did you turn green? I like pickles.

Anyways...call the Dr. asap or now and take the sweatshirt to class with you. Tie it around your waist. You now need a matching t-shirt.

(she will look very cute and kewl!)

Hugs to you Char!

I like the a/c (55-60) thing! I have the same system in my car!

It's hard to figure out WHAT to wear and bring these days! We went from cool to unbearable. I heard it's supposed to break tomorrow. I am praying!
