uhthoff's phenomenon
So when I overheat (which happens quite easily) my double vision gets worse. My nurse mentioned uhthoff's phenomenon and how I could potentially have this. If you have this do you have any tips on how you deal with it?

@lukezni This article has loads of advice... https://www.mstrust.org.uk/a-z/uhthoffs-phenomenon
In the US they seem far more willing to treat it with drugs. I have a little handheld moisture emitting cooling fan and an ice style vest from ThermApparel as it has started to bother me, esp in the warmer months. If I could persuade Mrs S to move to Northern Canada we'd be there now. Modafinil really helps with the associated cog-fog that accompanies it. See the Aaron Boster MD YouTube channel as he has several videos on this topic.
