When temps go up, I often have problems, but typically, if I cool down, I will be ok. The signals being sent along those damaged nerves have a much better chance of making it where they are supposed to go if the temperature is cool.
Sorry to go back to that analogy, but, think of cooling down as a way of getting that charging phone and frayed cord back in the right position.
The temporary worsening of symptoms isn’t a new worsening of my disease; the disease didn’t suddenly progress in front of you. The problems I am having are because of damage that’s already been done. I always have that damage and the potential for those problems, but because myelin is like an insulation, temperature changes are going to highlight the damages' effects.
It doesn’t take a big swing in temperature to cause a problem. 😜 If the room goes up by even a degree, it can have an effect on me. My nerves, like a house without insulation, can feel the changes outside much more easily than if it was fully insulated.
