The importance of a good umbrella and a cooling vest (Chapt 14)

[ActiveMSers]

In this chapter you are going to discover the importance of a good umbrella. Fortunately, I’ve tested them for ActiveMSers, and the best sun-protective models really do keep you cooler (and protect you from falling objects like raindrops and canes). https://www.activemsers.org/post/tes...king-umbrellas

I’m also one of the world’s leaders in testing cooling vests, which has turned out kinda handy as both MS and Lyme disease rebel in hot temperatures, just another of the many, many symptoms the two diseases share. https://www.activemsers.org/cooling-vest-guide

In the early days of my recovery, as I enjoyed gains atop of gains, weakness rapidly swamped my body, my superpowers totally sapped as if I had bathed in kryptonite. (Or, since I’m not sure about the melting properties of the fictional green, crystalline material, maybe a better analogy would be that I had exfoliated a little too aggressively using a kryptonite loofah, upon retrospect a poor grooming choice.) Now I barely had the strength to sit up, I couldn’t transfer out of my wheelchair without help, and getting on and off the toilet became a near impossibility. Worse, my bladder was in full revolt.


It felt like I was headed into the abyss. Was I relapsing?

I'll bite. I'm going with a Jarisch Herxheimer reaction.

BTDT...........and *spoiler alert*.... it feels like death!
