Heat

Hi all 👋 I have PPMS, Does the heat increase your symptoms? Never felt so weak and dizzy.

Heat

Does anyone else experience or suffer from heat? Like for me if I get to warm, I tend to either throw up or pass out. Just wondering

Heat

Is anyone else affected badly by heat? Eg, I went for a swim yesterday, went in the jacuzzi after and was struggling with mobility afterwards due to the heat. I wonder whether Ocrevus, when I start it, will help with things like this.

Heat

The heat and humidity and going to be terrible today. Here in the midwest of the United States. It's going to be around 100° Fahrenheit + We have broken out all the big fans and the air-conditioning so we should be okay. Now I've just got to avoid going outside.

Heat

So, it seems the heat is really screwing with me- dizziness, shaking, coordination worsening and vertigo. Any tips for dealing with it? Rn I'm just using lots of water and occasionally ice to try to keep cool.
