Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Sometimes I am so hot that I can only sleep with cold packs on me! The gel packs don't work, because they warm up too fast, so I use the hard cold packs that are for coolers, etc. I wrap one or two in a thin towel, lay one on my belly & one by my face. Meanwhile, I've still got my feet in 2-3 pair of sox, with either a heating pad or warmed rice sox, all wrapped up in at least one fleece blanket! Brings out the creativity in us, huh?

I can't stand anyone hot next to me. I often complain of how hot my husband feels, too, and i know it also hurts his feelings when i complain and ask him to move. But it IS really uncomfortable for me. Sometimes I ask him to take a cool shower and then come lay by me. I just thought it had something to do with the nature of sarc, the beast...being that it is an inflammatory disease. I have several throws I use and exchange during the night depending on hot or cold i get....lol. I've already gone through menopause and was wondering if the hot flashes continue afterwards....lol. I eat a lot of sugar-free fudgesicles or drink cool Crystal Lite when hot. hugs S. 29:11, For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 get some ziploc sandwich bags, put ice cubes in them, set them where you're hot. Works for me.
