I'm worried about this, and the people I've spoken to don't seem to be too concerned. The inside of the ICU was 88 degrees when I walked in today. It's been without AC for atleast 2 weeks(though I am not absolutely certain it has been 2 consecutive weeks)

To add further context: I am not a nurse, just a concerned individual. There are fans in every room, and they had the ICU doors closed initially, but they were kept forcibly opened (after complaints) which helped lower the temperature. It's still hot inside the ICU, and other rooms in the hospital are fine/have AC. I do not believe it felt humid.

What position/how many pillows to support yourself?

I've been using a 12 inch wedge, with a firm pillow at the top of the wedge, one to support my back at the base of the wedge, and a pillow below my knees.

Keep feeling awful, with dry mouth and headaches when waking up combined with tension in my back and tension headaches.

Any advice?
