Illiarily may have MS. This event and the one that happened in the Gay Pride Parade in NYC this past July show a quick and violent response to mild heat.

Beating the heat!
Sweltering temperatures can make MS symptoms worse.

MS patients often have an over sensitive response to heat.

Illiarily got in trouble during the Gay Pride day parade in NY City, Jun 27, 2016 earlier this year. In a few minutes she was in trouble. See the video below: (1)

Then, today at the 911 ceremony, she had even worse reactions to only a mild temperature.

Before is a medical look to how Sensitivity to Heat can quickly disrupt the quality of life for patients with MS.
Sensitivity to heat can disrupt the quality of life for people living with MS.

Here’s how to keep your cool. Heat intolerance is a common issue for people living with multiple sclerosis (MS). Not only are they in general more sensitive to heat, but heat can also make their MS symptoms considerably worse.

MS-related heat intolerance occurs because the myelin protective covering around the nerves in the brain is damaged and doesn’t function properly when the body is overheated, says Jack Burks, MD, chief medical officer of the Multiple Sclerosis Association of America.

“The nerve impulses cannot travel efficiently, and fatigue sets in,” Dr. Burks explains. “The dangers of heat intolerance might include a temporary decrease in balance, strength, feeling, or vision, which could lead to falls and other problems,” he says. The best way to avoid a temporary increase in MS symptoms related to heat intolerance is to avoid overheating in the first place.

But if you do feel overheated, it’s important to take steps to cool yourself down.

Try the following strategies to see what works for you:

Ice Can Be Nice Lisa Emrich, 46, a musician and music instructor from northern Virginia, uses ice to cool down. She says that when she becomes overheated, she has trouble thinking and speaking clearly, and sometimes has difficulty walking.

There have been times my husband and I are outside working in the yard and everything is okay, until suddenly I get overheated and have to ask him to help me inside
because my legs have difficulty moving,” she says.

“Ice is one of my favorite ways to cool down — it can be used in so many ways. On the inside of the wrist is nice, or on the back of the neck, your forehead, or the middle of the chest. If it’s a large ice pack, I like to hold it on the front of my body and try to cool off quickly.”

Sweltering temperatures can make MS symptoms worse

I seem to remember that it was 79 degrees at the time. Hardly sweltering heat, but perhaps it is to someone with MS.

Doesn't seem to make sense in light of the clothes she wears.

Why would she seemed dressed for fall during heat waves?

I just watched the video of her at the parade and I noticed Al Sharpton was behind her and he looked like he was lost and not doing so well himself.

Interesting you mention MS. Montel Williams has MS and has been going above and beyond on Twitter trying to defend Clinton. If he sees some of his own symptoms, he may be deflecting by saying the things he's saying and that she's perfectly fine and capable. People have been calling him out for some crazy comments. He seemed ok with Trump at first and he helped the marine in Mexico and so I followed him, then he started following me. I haven't deleted him yet but he's gone off the deep-end and maybe it has to do with sharing a disease with Clinton.
