Yes, heat causes me as much or more pain as cold does. Although I find very cold

damp weather extremely painful too, I really dont seem to tolerate the pain as

well when it's hot out. The cold has it's own set of troubles, like complete

numbess in my toes and fingers. It's makes it nearly impossible to use my hands.

But that's a whole other issue! I just wanted to confirm that hot weater indeed

has an adverse affect on pain levels for me.

My heart goes out to your daughter...

Try the fan and the cotton - see if it helps - you can angle it just to blow

on your side of the bed.

Heat seems to make my inflammation worse. I like the temperature at

about 60 degrees

and will run cold water on my hands often

My body temp is normally about 96.5 degrees and sleeping next to my

partner feels uncomfortably hot.

Satin sheets also keep you cool. My only complaint was that the ones

I bought some years ago smelled like they were permeated with

insecticide and no amount of washing would remove the smell, so I

quite using them, but they were very comfy and cool.

--- My two cents: If you find that you are both losing too much

sleep because of this then spend time together. Then sleep

seperately. It does not mean you have marriage problems if you have

to sleep apart. You can always " visit " each other. This is what my

parents do because my dad snores too much and they find it makes

their lives easier. Good luck to all.

Hi all,

Thanks so much for all your responses about doctors! Elias... I will most

likely be looking up your doc as they are closest!!!! Thanks so much!!!

Did any of you gain weight with mold exposure? And, have you had success by

being treated with the anti fungal meds in losing the weight.???

I gained about 40lbs and have been told by different people who also experienced

mold that it is a by product of the mold in the body... have any of you heard

this? and what do you think???

Thanks again,

Vicki Booros

Yes, Vicki. I gained about 30 lbs. and according to a survey I did

years ago, this is the norm with mold victims.

Yes, I gained weight and no matter what I didn't I couldn't get rid of it.

I used Dr. Shoemaker's protocol, lost weight and feel SO much better. Check

out the website _www.biotoxin.info_ (http://www.biotoxin.info) and try to

read his book Mold Warriors You'll probably recognize so many of your

symptoms!!
