Multiple Sclerosis and Keeping Cool

Are you keeping cool in this summer heat? I seem to have more exacerbations the warmer it gets, which of course makes my multiple sclerosis worse. My friend who also has multiple sclerosis swears by the different cooling devices you can get. I am sold now, too, now that she bought me the scarf.

I use the cooling scarf half of the time when I go outside and always when I go excercise. With 100 degree temperatures, those of us with multiple sclerosis can not afford to overheat our bodies in the summer.

There are all kinds of devices you can get. If you are worried about fashion in addition to your multiple sclerosis, have a cute outfit and weave your cooling device into your outfit. I would much rather be able to walk than to look cute.
