What Are Your Top Tips For Dealing With Fibromyalgia In The Heat?
The winter seems the worst time for me for pain.
Extremes in temperature are not good for pain. If the weather's nice I'm fine.
I feel like I can predict the weather with my body.
Does anyone else feel that way?
My body loves the sun. It hurts more when fall and winter come....and the cold.
I cannot tolerate the humidity and heat due to the fibro. I feel like I get hot flashes which is impossible because I am 78 and way past menopause. So I stay indoors.
Heat seems to help my pain although I take a lot of dizzy spells and I swell. I do everything at a much slower pace (not that I’m fast anyway!) wear the lightest loosest clothes possible and have a wet handkerchief round my neck. Bottle of water with you at all times. I can’t tolerate a sun hat it makes my head sweat and I feel worse!
Put PJ’s, undies and bedding in freezer/fridge
