been dealing with MS for a while now and summer in Tampa is brutal. past few days i’m noticing fatigue got worse, legs feel heavier, vision’s a bit off. my first instinct is to panic about a relapse, but then i remember Uhthoff is real and the heat just makes everything feel worse.
can’t tell if i’m actually flaring or if my body’s just screaming because i spent 8 hours in a warehouse without decent AC. does anyone track this? how do you tell the difference between heat intolerance making things worse and an actual relapse starting?
are there signs you watch for, or does it just… become obvious later when you compare how you feel after a few days without the heat?
