I bet that looks funny seeing someone dressed like that "playing" in the snow! Bet it feels good though. My husband has learned to dress warm in the winter in the house because we keep it really cool. When our friends come over, they automatically grab the afghans!

Hi Janice
I get very hot when it is only in the 70 or 80's for no reason I can
just be on the computer or watching TV and I will get real hot so much that I
sweat a lot..(I soak my blouse) but I only sweat on my face neck and
breasts..my lesion is at nipple level T4 my banding is where my bra
snaps...so it feels like my bra is way to tight.
In the cold weather I get more spastic and tight it hurts to bend knees
and ankles. I still have the banding in winter too...and if my husband puts
the furnace up to high I will over heat...I love to go out in the snow with
just what I have on and bear foot and watch all the steam come off me..its a
riot...

This is Janice,
I have 2 questions:
1. With hot weather coming, do any of you have a problem with all of a
sudden being really hot? I know some
of you had a problem with the cold last winter, but does your body
change in summer and you get hit with being hot instead
of cold? I really have a problem with heat - especially with
humidity. I get hot, then weak. Not good.
2. Several of you have mentioned the tight "band" around your body. I
am not sure this band is in the same place for
everyone. Also, has there been any change in the band with those of
you who have had TM for a long time?
