Re: *Mo (was:Can hypo folks climbmountains??

[Guest guest]

When I was first dx with MS in my late 20's my body forgot how to sweat.

Sunlight on one clothed leg for 3 minutes would make me fall asleep. I slowly

rehabed and got in shape in my 30's and built up good heat tolerance. After my

kiddo was born, I was always dripping, especially the back of my neck. I was

doing well a few years ago -- when I suspect my hypER was bravely burning out.

I've had long times when things seem to work well enough only to have them

dysregulate, again. In the past couple of years we have been under stress that I

cannot, yet, describe, and I just sort of watched and felt myself age in

time-lapse. Another year without help and my kiddo would surely have been

looking for a step-mom for Christmas.

I've read Dr Andy Cutler's book which says that heat intolerance is a hallmark

of mercury toxicity, which is also likely for me.

Lyme disease (Borrelia bergorferi) is not only widely under- un-diagnosed but is

notorious for all the symptoms of hypothyroid also.

....

Heat intolerence is such a difficult thing....

especially since others cannot understand. They say,

oh, it is because you are overweight.Meanwhile 300 lb

folks are out there enjoying the sun and the hot days

of summer...

...and then I think it has to do with the

temperature regulators being off in the body.

Just stabs in the dark, Mo...

I hear ya on the heat.

You know it's funny you should mention this. When I was so sick and moved across

country like that, when I got to California and went to a doctor out there as I

just couldn;t even function enough to even work, they thought I had Lyme

Disease. I was tested repeatedly for it always negative, but working in MY

career for this many years especially in PA where it is rampant, I wonder if I

haven;t had that to contend with as well. I took antibiotics for about a month

just in case from that doctor, and did feel better but I also got rid of a ton

of really bad stresses as well about the same time and increased my Armour too.

So who knows which helped the most?
