Question:
Does hot weather affect rashes and such with Lupus ?
Response:
It sure does with me! It makes my rashes more visible and aggravates my skin and generally makes me feel LOUSY. I feel so much better and accomplish so much more when it is cool outside, and in. — hugs……from Shelagh "the more things change, the more they stay the same" "Kimby" <Kimd…@adelphia.net> wrote in message

oh yeah! Infra-red light (heat, IOW) can cause problems for a lot of us. I turn an interesting shade of Washington Red Delicious when I get too warm whether I’m inside or outside. Heating pads can relieve muscle pain – but tend to cause much itching and little bubbly rashes at points of contact.

YES! Especially if combined with sun exposure of even limited duration. I’m in deep brain fog others will say more. Jackie "Kimby" <Kimd…@adelphia.net> wrote in message

The heat really bothers me. I get hives when over heated. Talk about itch! I also notice that I get a rash that is, or is like, a heat rash. My face gets very flushed, my heart pounds, and I feel sick to my stomach. That is why we got air conditioning last summer. It is funny because I can’t stand the cold either. Guess you might say that I am never happy. <g> BJ-Sk. Canada "Kimby" <Kimd…@adelphia.net> wrote in message

I am just the opposite. My lupus always is better in the warm weather, awful all winter long. On Mon, 16 Jun 2003 02:07:50 GMT, "Kimby" <Kimd…@adelphia.net> wrote: – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text ->Does hot weather affect rashes and such with Lupus ?
