Guest guest Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 MSer's I hate the heat too!! Between the heat and then my hormones don't help either...grrrrrr:) But figuring you guys understand huh? I myself hate the skin to skin connecting. My ceiling fans are set on high. I also have found taking Benedryl 50 mgs. I take tylenol PM hard to explain but it seems to help me some. I take neurontin for the heat/tingling but if I take to much I can't function. I've also stopped the wine and drink tons of water. I thought I'd be peeing like crazy but I guess my body needs the water. Long story short cuz I just confused myself but try the benedryl 50 mgs at bedtime. Works for me I'd like to see it helps others like it does for me.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Is it only when you sleep/at night, and only when skin touches skin? That does sound a bit odd (not that nerves aren't known to do weird stuff...). But I do know had one exacerbation where her main symptom was that touch/pressure (of any kind, especially the pressure of chair or bed when she sat down or lay down) was "registered" as heat on the left half her body (ie. she didn't feel the pressure of the chair etc, when she sat down it felt like, to her, as if her right side sat down on a chair, but her left side felt like it was burning hot, without actually being hot). Some sort of misinterpretation going on in the nerves in that case. love/Reb>> Ok, I have had this thing going on for months. Heat. When I sleep.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Weird. Do you know if the skin actually is hot, or if it "just" feels that way? Hard to know if the whole body is affected, of course, but I am guessing that would be the difference between nerves playing tricks (fooling you to feel heat that are not actually there) and something to do with the body thermostat. I suppose you should see, or at least call, someone about it. Do you have a regular doctor (not necessarily neuro)? Or is there any good medical telephone service (where you can call with medical questions) in your area?love/Reb > > > > Ok, I have had this thing going on for months. Heat. When I sleep.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Hormonal is also possible, remember I squeaked Robbin out and slammed the door, then 8-9 years later bled for a year and 1/2 (the time Robbin was with his father) and stopped within a month of him coning home. Nothing since. So it is possible my hormones are totally messed up...   ~*~Hugs~*~ ~*~Akiba~*~ Pragmatic Visionary http://www.affiliates-natural-salt-lamps.com/pages/156.php -- Re: heat  .

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011  Oh I believe it Jackie. I'm 62 and had to have a hysterectomy at 36. My ovaries were left but I never knew when I really went through meno. I think it was when I used the patch to quit smoking except I blamed the yuckies on that. Then 3 separate times, doctors put me on premarin because my hormones were out of whack and it would keep my bones stronger. Each time I quit and I have for good now, I'd get all the meno symptoms back. My mother was still menstruating at 69, the year that she died. Sympathy to your husband. I hadn't realized men went through that ... hugs, Cait heatOk, I have had this thing going on for months. Heat. When I sleep.
