Hi!I'm new here...nice to meet you!I know exactly how you feel...went thru that several years ago with my husband.He's a carpenterand here in Missouri it gets hot!Our family doctor at the time(may be rest in peace)turned us on to gatorade and bananas and orange juice.He drinks the gatorade during the day,eats a banana and drinks a glass of orange juice in the morning before going to work.Knock on wood,we haven't had any more scary visits to the e.r.Hope yours recovers fully...thought and prayers your way!

He has an appointment to see a neurologist on the 25th, for his arm...he had no control over his upper body Thursday, and we seem to think it could just be something temporarily, but we don't know for sure yet...I am hoping and praying it isn't anything too serious and will just go away eventually......

That IS wayyyy scary. I have issues with the heat (I get heat rashes all the time and often have to lie down in a cool dark room to recover). Your hubby will now too. Be very careful with him.

I hope your husband is doing well.
That must have been so very frighting!!. I do not do well in the heat and have had heat exhaustion once, it was awful.
I am sending good thoughts and prayers your way.

I'm really sorry to hear about your husband having heat stroke. I hope everything will turn out ok for him. It sounds like it is pretty serious, and I hope he gets better soon. You are in my thoughts. Let us know how he is doing.
