I haven't been here in quite a while, so this topic may have been covered already. If so forgive me...
I've started to notice over the last several months that my sensory issues are getting worse. Since my DX back in Aug '14, I thought identifying my issues would make things easier, but that hasn't been the case. I've started sleeping in my day's clothes because my pajamas are too cold on my skin -- and I'm in SE Texas; it's a mild climate in the winter so it's not like my clothes or the house is too icy. Bathing and showering affect me the same way. Doesn't matter how warm the water is...the sensation of dry to wet is numbing. And then I go through the opposite problem when it's time to get out -- freezing even with the heater on until I dry off.
The main thing that's getting me now though is sound sensitivity, various engines and motors in particular -- power tools, truck engines, motorcycles. And it's not just the volume, as I'm aware that if something is loud enough, anybody would be affected. But now, besides the volume, the sound vibrates me to my very core. It's so bad that I cry out when I feel/hear it, and it's been known to bring tears to my eyes. And it's the most godawful feeling in the world. If someone wanted to get information out of me, I would tell them whatever they wanted to know if they just replicated that sensation.
Has anybody else experienced this? Especially that kind of sound sensation? Maybe it's an age thing...I'm almost 56. Any other WP seniors have the same problem? And I guess the main question is how to deal with it. Thanks!
