Coping with the heat with RRMS
Hiya hope everyone is okay just a quick question, does anyone else with RRMS struggle being out in the sun and heat? Or has anyone got any ideas on how I could handle being out in it without being absolutely exhausted and struggling with it, I want to be able to enjoy the sun and walks in it with my partner and our children x
Hiya, I have RRMS too and travelled for the 1st since being diagnosed to Cyprus last month. My goodness it was a different experience for me, it was mostly 40 degrees. Best advice I can give is go out before the heat reaches it peck temp, make sure you have shade available to you so your not directly in the sun, wet cold flannel. I had an extra towel to cover my legs, (you may be wondering why, but I thought the sun wouldn’t affect it! Boy was I wrong… I couldn’t walk back to the room after). Also if you’re not feeling 100%, don’t go out until you feel up to it as the sun makes it 10 times work. I really hope this all helped, and have a lovely holiday. Take care
I have PPMS, can’t imagine it being any different for any variant. The heat is so difficult for me to cope with, I just want the summer to end! I use fans in the house along with a hand fan
