Hi Erin,
I hope you are resting and feeling a little better. I felt very much like you when I had my treatments, especially with the AC. It was weird because I didn't get horribly sick, but after every one I would feel like I had literally been hit by a truck and had very wobbly knees and could hardly stand. I have a tendency to faint anyways (low blood pressure), but I had to almost "skoot" from place to place on my behind because I was so light-headed. Any exposure to heat just made it a sure thing. Please be careful and rest as much as you can. I pray that you will perk up very soon.
Love, Kelly
