Going to Turkey soon and am quite (very) nervous because I have heat intolerance and every day it’s going to be at least 29 degrees with a uv index of 9 (which I have never experienced?? that can’t happen at this latitude). Everything I wear in summer is either linen or cotton so I know I’m okay on that front, I wear spf 50 every day in summer here anyway cause I’m ginger so will be very on top of that, got a hat, just have to buy a tonne of chewable electrolyte tablets… 🫡

#pots my beloathed.#have talked to my partner about this a lot because my pots getting worse and therefore getting the diagnosis has changed my life a lot #and I was like huh at what point do you think I call myself disabled #and they said a while ago. because it does disable me on the daily #and that is just kind of hard to wrap my head around #but uh yeah 21 degrees is my threshold for heat exhaustion no matter the precautions I take and it really sucks #I want so badly to enjoy summer but the whole season is such a battle #am thankful to live in a country where it’s light till gone 10pm so I *can* enjoy the sun w low uv #but that’s the 53rd parallel and I’m gonna be at the 36th parallel for a week 🥲#I just want to be more excited about this holiday than like. genuinely scared for my health
