    Definitely HEAT takes me out—above 80 degrees results in emended fatigue—84 F in the sun and its too much—I overheat (for some reason I do not sweat much at all—my skin gets very hot) and I need to get cool quickly and am out for the rest of the day.

    I use a cooling vest (Polar products?) so I can go out at all in the spring/summer (I live in VA).

    I missed all of my kids graduations and many sports event b/c I can’t tolerate the heat
