I'm allergic to exercising! :(

I don't exercise for weight loss; I have chronic Lyme. I have lost all my weight from diet management

They also have cooling vest that help keep your temp down. I use a cooling scarf because I only very minimally sweat and overheat really easy and my body swells big time. I cant really do any strenous exercise but, I manage to do a few things at a time and just take breaks. Like 30 crunches, 20 sec planks, 20 push ups and break and do it again later.

I have the same problem so I take zyrtec every single day and make sure I get plenty of water. I have found that when I lost a lot of the weight, my urticaria has gotten better. I do high impact workout that made me sweat and then my skin raises but I push through it and shower right after and that seems to help. Its not so much a problem now but like I said I have to take a antihistamine all the time but its worth it.

I've suffered with excruciating Plantar Fasciitis for 9yrs now. I suffer with that pain whether I exercise or do not exercise. So I exercise. Sometimes I cry while I do it...being fat makes me cry too so I guess I just pick what I get to cry about. Unless this is a life threatening issue for you, I'd advise you to try to just grin and bear it.

I'm sorry your body does not cooperate with you.

What about keeping ice or ice packs on hand? Apparently if you place ice just below the back of your neck, and at your armpits and groin, it can bring core temperature down quickly

Wow just googling it, there is such a thing as an ice vest (here they used one by Nike)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooling_vest
A cooling vest is a piece of specially made clothing designed to lower body temperature and make exposure to warm climates or environments more bearable. Cooling vests are used by many athletes, construction workers, and welders, as well as individuals suffering from Multiple Sclerosis, Hypohidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia, or various types of sports injuries.

Otherwise, may be good to try to do Pilates and other isometric exercise in a room as cool as you can make it. Just do it very slowly and get what you can out of those contractions.

Look up chair exercises...works out your muscles and the intensity is what you want to make it!
What about walking in place at home?

An acquaintance I had suffered with the same problem. She would take an antihistamine prior to exercising. As far as cooling gear. Take a look at some of the items for people with multiple sclerosis. Heat can be pretty bad for people with ms, so there are tons of gear to help. Cooling vests and special cooling wraps, handkerchiefs, etc. Another friend found that ice cold water on the inside of her wrists was often enough to stop any issues exacerbated by heat.
