Anyone Getting Cold since surgery?

[crdevans 6]

I had my surgery 11-27-2012 and every since I get cold flashes especially at night. Before Surgery I was hot all the time. Has anyone else experiance this or know what is from?

I have always run hot, night sweats and all but now I get chilled easily. Have to wear socks at home and am all bundled up. I havent lost a huge amount of weight (38 down from my highest of 242) but apparently its enough to make me stop sweating all the time. Now that I think about it, I havent even been sweating when getting ready in the morning. Yay!

I am 52 and was ALWAYS hot! Now, I am always bundled up under a throw or sweater... I guess some of the 48lbs of fat padding was keeping me warm!

I'm pre-op but thought I read somewhere that the loss of ghrelin produced by the part of the stomach removed can make you cold.

I used to wear shorts year round..I would Christmas shop in shorts! lol

Now I am freezing all the time. I am stting here at my desk with a heating pad on my lap! lol

I stopped having a sweating problem. Not even having my long hair down keeps me warm anymore whereas before it would make me so hot!

My doctor told me I would be a lot colder after the surgery. I haven't found it to be true yet. I always have cold feet anyway.

I wore shorts, sleeveless short night-gowns, now I wear long-sleeve pants and shirts, sometimes I get up and put sweatshirts on in bed. I hate socks, even in the winter, now I wear fuzzy socks and I wish there was a place I could get leg warmers. I have never ever been cold in my life, now I'm freezing constantly.

Other than that I feel great and look great, just need to get used to being cold and layering.

I freeze all the time and I used to be hot natured. I have the heat on 75 right now in my office, wearing wool socks, fuzzy lined sherpa boots, a sweater and an undershirt and my feet and hands are freezing. Same everyday. I sit here in a coat too most of the time. As soon as I get home today looking forward to thick pjs and multiple blankets in front of the fireplace .

Yes! I am always cold. especially my hands and feet. My feet would get cold easily before surgery but never my hands. Now I am always cold. I still sweat while exercising but not as much.

So glad to know I am not alone. I am always cold and hearing so many of you say your experiencing the same thing is comforting.
