Guest guest Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 Actually, I sorta feel 'best " in heat -but it has to be DRY! I live in Washington, where it's either raining, going to rain, or just did rain -and I can tell you, hot or cold -humidity sucks for RA, FMS, Osteo, etc! If it gets REAL hot here (like 95-105 degrees) I really suffer. I feel like a limp needle, so fatigued! Of course, that might also have to do with the fact that no one up here even HAS air conditioning! (OK - a very few, rich people, maybe). But last summer, I went to Las Vegas (my old ex-hometown) to visit my sissy -and felt FABULOUS!! At 108 degrees! It's a stifling heat- but it's DRY! And that makes all the diff for me! I know, you're probably wondering why I don't just live there...good question; complicated answer! On to the next question... About the " wind " even indoors? Do you mean windy outside, but have an adverse effect even when you are inside? OR do you mean windy indoors -like the AC blowing on you? Actually, this made perfect sense to me because it was a discussion I saw on another board I belong to (MSVETS). You see, this phenomenom of being irritated, or having neurological symptoms when air blows on you, is actually quite COMMON to those who have MS, and because I have neuralgias, I, too, experience a manifestation of my " Trigeminal " (on the face-cheek) Neuralgia (pain). I wonder if this might help?...

I do chores in the evening after it cools off. The wind bothers me no more than before. Roxanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 Hello there , You know, I think you have convinced me to move to Vegas or at least Nevada. I keep thinking I will do better there but the one time I was there it was 110 degrees and I was miserable when outdoors. I had not been diagnosed at that point, but was flaring that day. I might do better now I know what I am dealing with. The only drawback is I love being near water, so also thought of Orlando, FL to be near the beach or NC near the beach. Lived in CA, too expensive there. I may take a trip out there soon to look at some rentals there (NV). Hope all is well as can be. Take care. love/peace, Ebony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
