Humidity is a key to (my) increase fatigue levels.

Here in Hazy, Hot and Humid New York... air conditioning, ice wraps on my wrist (when I go outside) and a wish to see the first snow-flake :)

Could be heat related fatigue, or just plain old MS fatigue.. Whichever one it is, it sux..I stay in AC all summer, and if I get over-heated ~ well, then it's Wet T-shirt Night at the Polar residence (sitting it front of a fan, of course)..:D I hope you're back to your old self soon!

Hey Fin~ Wouldn't it be great if there WAS a magical solution? I find myself taking cool showers and even tho my AC runs nonstop, I find myself overheating as soon as I step outdoors.

I am also having trouble getting to sleep, as soon as I put my head on my pillow, I start feeling really warm all over. I do have a Chillow Pillow and should get that back out. *not hot flashes, I'm done w/that mess*

If anyone finds a good solution, puleeez shout it out!!!!

Keep cool Fin~~~

I have no advice - just wanted to let you know I feel your pain.

I have been sleeping an awful lot lately - 4-5 hours each afternoon and then still going to bed fairly early (10-11 PM). I guess I must need the rest. The cats and I lay down each day about 1 PM and I don't get up until at least 5 PM - sometimes later.

Maybe with all this time I'm spending at home I'm beginning to think I'm a cat, too!

since your name isn't Other MSer, he should treat you as the individual person you are. GOOD LUCK! :hug:

I suffered from fatigue for about three straight weeks in June...then it dissipated.
Can't you get something to get your energy level up, like Provigil?
Take care of yourself, and listen to your body (as if you could ignore all of the stupid noise it gives you, right?:rolleyes:)

I had a rare bad reaction to Provigil. I love being special when it comes to meds sometimes, LOL. My docs are afraid to give me anything stronger, so stuck doing this the 'ol fashioned way.

But haven't been fatigued the past couple of days as bad as I have been. I've limited my coffee to two cups the past few days (should've seen this. common sense says having a hot breverage is not the way to cool down - LOL)

Also been cooling off the back of my neck when I start to get that overheated feeling, which is funny being in a home with A/C.:rolleyes:

Once again, thanks everyone! You're the best. :grouphug:
