I find I need to stay indoors a lot more in the winter. I drink lots of tea and wear tights underneath my pants as well as thermal vests. A lot of money is spent heating the house.

@Pleasance I too hate the cold. Wrap up with thermal layers and still feel cold! Pain is much worse and fatigue

Hello everyone,
Have you seen this older discussion?
Do you experience problems with the cold? Do you have any symptoms that appear particularly during winter? Do you get more fatigued, or does your spasticity intensify? If so, what do you do to ease these symptoms?

I prefer cold weather to hot but we're all different in everything that suits us. You would not believe that 20 years ago I would sunbathe for hours on end with books but now I prefer the shade Thats how MS has changed my life. But being alive is greater than not being here and I count my blessings every day. Have a restful and peaceful Christmas all on here

I too feel the cold (especially the feet) as being in a wheelchair movement is difficult Although cooler when in bed i wake up sometimes in the middle of the night far too warm Very frustrating

Hello everyone,
Now that the weather is changing and it is becoming much colder, do you find that this has any impact on your MS? Is it worse in the winter than it is during warmer times of the year? What measures do you take to combat the cold?
