My meds make me very heat sensitive and I have very fair skin so have to be careful because some of them increase the risk of sunburn as well. Pretty much if it is over 80 then I'm stuck inside and above 78 can be pretty uncomfortable.

Years ago I had an assistant get really mad because I asked her if she'd do the patients in the outbuildings over the summer and then I'd do all fall because walking to them was so hard on me and made me sick. She thought I was making it up since I could walk from the parking lot to the door. It was a mess and such a stupid one because my taking the outbuildings for the whole fall would be a big sacrifice on my part b/c my job left me with less time for that than hers did. I never did figure out what her problem was.
