So I've heard about how the heat can be a problem for those with MS, but I had no idea what that meant. Until now. Yesterday was a fairly warm and muggy day here in Eugene (yes rainy Eugene has warm days too). I was outside working in the yard for a couple hours when it hit. Like a ton of bricks just landed on me. I could barely move, legs wobbly, mind fuzzy. My wife was outside and saw me, helped me into the house and put cool washcloths on me. I slept the rest of the day.
Today I still feel exhausted although the heaviness has lifted. I really like the summers; we get so much rain and cold that it's nice to enjoy the few warm months we get. Now I'm wondering if I'll be able to enjoy any of the warm weather this summer. How do you all cope with the heat?
