I am not able tolerate heat, whether it be outside, in a warm room, or a hot shower. My legs get weak, I get very tired, a little fuzzy, a little later my feet and left leg will spasm (more so than usual). I do not have a diagnosis yet, but this is one of my more bothersome symptoms - has practically ruined my summer. I used to sit outside an dread after work everyday. Now I can only go out if it's cool - not much this summer! I haven't put anything warm on my lap, so I don't know what would happen. Curious now, though.
Have a good trip. Feel well

I would suggest putting your laptop on a towel and try typing that way. The towel would absorb the heat from the laptop. Or you could use a pillow or blanket as a suggestion.
I have heat intolerance. Found that out during a shower in may, before I was diagnosed. It was not fun. Ended up going to ER. That was my first official bad day of MS. Now I take cool showers. I don't like it. I really miss my hot showers, but the side effects aren't worth it! Have a safe trip. Karina
I haven't experienced the heat intolerance so far. I keep testing myself in a hot shower, but I haven't noticed a worsening of Sx yet.
I don't know ~ the laptop could worsen your Sx. It seems like it would be "heating" up the nerves in that area, thus possibly slowing them down.
Have a safe and fun work trip!! Take care and will catch 'ya later!! Pat :)
