Ahh, I think I know the culprit. I had a steroid injection in my left knee yesterday morning. It’s known to cause flushing a day after.

I use air conditioners and put an Ice bag on, for a little while just to cool down some. I have to try various things when it is like this,

I did not have this health issue but my knees bruised to a light green when I jogged? I can walk on the tread mill and I do not bruise. I know there can be an increase in body temperature and "night sweats?" I do use a fan to keep myself cool at night. Last winter 3 blankets would lead to night sweats. I take medication and have normal WBC count but I sure have all the things leukemia has to offer?😇

Thank you, Sharon! Very informative. I didn’t have fever, just the flushing. I seem to be ok today. It’s cloudy and breezy so it may just be some leukemia heat intolerance the past few days. Hope you are doing all right today. Each day can bring us surprises, can’t it? 🙄
