A change in diet and environment also affects us in many ways, to me at least. I have some paraplegic friends who are very adaptable. I guess the injury affects us in different ways. Lucia,

My immune system disease wreaks havoc with mine, and I sweat ALL the time, very profusely and I have severe cold intolerance ...I cannot adjust to any temp. changes either, even very subtle ones and I live in an apartment I have climate controlled (pretty much) so it's my only refuge really. I must be careful of my potassium & electrolyte balance and I dehydrate rather quickly as well. Sweat RULES my world and yet I am cold all the time! I go thru a multitude of shirts throughout each day as you must, in an attempt to keep your temp. regulated.I really feel for you and wish it were different for you. I had wondered if your breathing was affected...and was sorry to hear that you also have that added burden to contend with! I continue to pray for you and Wuan, for health, happiness and healing.
