I am such a happy camper with my cotton knit.? Such a miraculous fiber.? Isn't it great when we find something that works for us, most of the time????? It's just amazing!? It's definately a game of trial and error, that's for sure.??Life is so much fun when you have TM.? The majority of my sensitivity is in the evening and during the night.? There are times when I cannot even?stand skin to skin contact.? That's why I sleep on my back with my knees bent many nights.?
Take care everyone!

But, I have no problem with sheets and blankets on me at nite.?? I sleep with a pillow between my knees and that takes care of any problems I guess.????? I have slept with a summer gown all winter, otherwise I get too hot.????????

I have purchased so many sets of sheets and blankets over my TM years (T 8-10, 6/1/99), and I have had this sensitivity for most of that time.? It started as sensitivity and is so often PAIN.? I've gone from egyptian cotton, very good quality flannel, jersey (like T-shirt material) and all sorts of thread counts of cotton.? In sheets, I think that most of the time, my most comfortable sheet happens to be the jersey.? I'm not saying that I can always have my legs against them, because I cannot, I lay on my back many nights with my knees bent so nothing touches my legs.? Blankets are much worse, so you need to get the most comfortable sheet you can near your skin.? If you have any "old" pajama bottoms, those are also some of the most comfortable, or I wear the short ones.? I've bought some microfiber plush pants this year from OldNavy.com and they have been warm on my legs and haven't irritated them.? I am very much looking forward to warmer weather when I can wear short pants all the time and not being uncomfortable.
