Recovery of strength is seen after a period of rest or with application of ice to the affected muscle. Conversely, increased ambient or core temperature may worsen muscle weakness.

This workplace temperture thing, I have run into a few times.
Seems some employees hold others hostage with the temperature controls. It can become a war...if not dealt with properly! :(

I can tell you what a hot bath does to you..LOL, took one last night and my legs and arms were jello..LOL.

Have your Dr write a note about how the heat effects your MG.
