Do you take any water pills like, Hydrochlorothiazide ? Those and any other water pills will have bad effects in that type of heat.
I suffer heat injuries every year since the first time I had one. 31 year, UPS driver.

I did one year and I think that was what caused my HBP. I never had an issue until after that year.
Should I send you $175? Same thing my DR said.
My instructor job had me climbing up and down on the Avenger turret no matter the weather, but now I'm just teaching the Stinger missile shot off the shoulder so everything is in an AC classroom. I'm 62 so I'm done climbing up & down in triple digits. Just walking from the parking lot to the classroom in this heat is more than I care for. I need to do some yardwork this weekend and I'm not feeling it. As it is it might not get done till November.
The Dr had me on that for HBP, along with amlodipine and olmesartan. I dropped 60lbs and now only take olmesartan.
The heat is no joke, know your limits!!
As do I. I came very close to getting heat exhaustion a couple of years ago in August being outside all day and not drinking enough water.I'm afraid I have to empathize with you! I really have to watch my heat exposure these days.
I'm 62 and I have blacked out three times from getting too hot while working out in the heat. I started having a real difficult time tolerating the summer temps about 8-10 years ago. Nowadays the heat zaps me very quickly. If it weren't for A/C I would have to move north, heaven forbid.
Years ago, while still working at the P666 refinery in Ponca City, a coworker and I were doing a full rubber suit job on a 95-degree day. We're talking about rubber jacket, pants, boots, gloves, and goggles. We worked on a large check valve for two hours straight in the heat. I got pretty sick from it. After that happened, I now have about zero tolerance for the heat. If I'm out in the heat I start getting headaches pretty quick. I'm retired now and I stay in the house or my air-conditioned garage working most of the time.
That haven't been shipped yetThat thing probably got headlights neighbors wont mind a 2am mowing!!
