Heat!!

Hi there, I think that I already know the answer, but I guess I am just wanting to hear it or confirmed by someone else.....I guess from time to time I find that I am second guessing myself....(note I have been dx with MS and on Copaxone)

Heat.....today I was in a meeting, in a closed conference room. I did notice that it seemed a bit warm to me, but really did not think of it as being an issue.  I began to feel the following:

• vision problems
• funy head feeling, not really dizzy, not really fuzzy, or maybe a combo of both
• tingling of the fingers and by the knees
• headache
• muscles in my neck became stiffer than normal

Then out of no where, someone in the meeting suggested that it was really warm in the room. I find it funny that I did not note it to be particulary warm, just warmer than lets say I keep my office at.

So .... will the "heat" bring on these symptoms, even though I did not find it to be that warm. Funny, the other night while at home, I started to feel these symptoms, and did not feel warm. My wife put her hand on my back, and told me that I was really warm.....again I did not notice the warmth?

Once I got away from this room in our house (took a cool shower) I began to feel better - and eventuallythe symptoms went away....

So symptoms? and can I get these symptoms even when I do not feel that it is warm where ever I am at?

Thanks for your help, and have a nice day

Hey Gary,

It is strange that you are having symptoms but not really feeling warm.  Perhaps the MS has made you not real able to sense body temperature changes.  I know that in my feet, the numbness causes me to not feel hot and cold.  I am wondering if you have this but sort of whole body instead.

Keep a close eye on this if it is new for you.

I am not sure what to say. So glad you all are feeling good .I am so scared an i feel so alone . I started an few months ago with the Bells Palsy (about 10 time) .It happens an thought it would play through an my head hurt more than normal. I have had nerve damage surgery on arm,Did'nt think that meant anything either.After open heart in 1967,bad blood transfussion an just finally gettin over the 2 yrs of chemo for hep c , I mean what else could happen -wish i could quit crying an iwish i had a girfriend so bad. anyway i told maybe i should see a neo so she says you want an i remember this doc an happens hes a neo surgon -after the MRI an i say so sryr he says no -just get a second opinion. I read the report an it says ::scattered areas of high signal intensity in the peniventricular white matter ,centrum semiovale,and corona radiats are noted on T2 an more so on FLAIR images .Findings may be seen as MS .Maybe see with extensive small vessel ischemic disease and would recomm clinical correlation.no abnormalited in the posterior fossa??
