I am mostly recovered from a mild case of TM nine years ago. But still I cannot tolerate heat for any length of time. If I am outside when it is very hot out I pay the price of feeling very weak and exhausted. Heavy limbs. Feel like I am walking through wet cement. Here in southern North Carolina we have long, hot summers so I spend more time indoors in the summer and then enjoy outdoor activities during the spring, fall and our lovely mild winters. Laura in NC
