I was recently diagnosed with MS and just started my Copaxone injections last week. My family (husband and 2 boys) are on vacation and I decided to have a glass of wine. I don't drink much, maybe once or twice a month. After about three sips I felt like I'd drank a whole bottle and I got very hot.
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.
Also, does anyone have issues feeling over heated in general?
Heat issues is very common with MS. Keep the lower back of you head cool & the heat will be felt a lot less. Your internal thermometer is there so if it's cool, the rest of you will be cool. As for the drinking, it's not a Copaxone thing. Again MS. It takes ones tolerance level to almost nothing.
I'm always having hot flashes. Between menopause and MS stuff. I stopped drinking as much as I enjoyed a glass of wine. I couldn't stand the heat and flushed feeling
I too am not a "drinker", but it happends with beer too.....1/2 a bottle or can, and I'm out!!!
Now I'm curious if it's just wine that has this impact or all alcohol.
Meeeee toooo....and it is a problem as I live in Spain, and I ❤️ Wine!!! When I walk, I look drunk anyway, so.......might as well!!!
