hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh it’s 95F today and our A/C unit broke last night. we can’t get a replacement until wednesday at the earliest and my chronic illnesses make it so I can’t regulate my body temperature (I’m always hot, also heat is bad for POTS). my mom went out and bought some window units & put sheets up on the doorways into the living room (where I am) to try to get it cool faster. I’m also surrounding myself with ice packs (currently 3 lunch box size ice packs + a large rice sock). I’m still melting.

#not to mention I burned my feet yesterday at the pool by walking barefoot on the concrete pool deck #because people told us that the deck was ''a little hot'' and we might want to keep our shoes on but SEVERELY understated it #it was 99F out yesterday and the concrete was in direct sunlight all day [I stood on it for ~3 minutes at 2:30pm]#and like listen I know other people don't have a/c at all but I've been fortunate enough to live most of my life with central a/c #and it's 95F out and my chronic illnesses throw my body temp out of wack and my POTS gets worse #also we don't have any standing fans because the 2 we had before broke. so all I have is ice packs + one ceiling fan + a small window unit #in our one story house [there is a basement but I can't make it down there]#vent
