TinyMamiOf3kids 1,280 Posted June 12, 2012 It's almost 70 degrees all the sudden I felt so cold like if it was 40 degree. I started cooking. Everything warmed up. I felt so hot. After dinner was over I was still warm. I went to check my blood pressure it said 108 over 84. Have anyone experience this? I felt like manaupause. I was shaking that's how cold I was.

Jen in SoCal 189 Posted June 12, 2012 I seem to be really intolerant to cold lately. Most nights I have to put on socks and sleep with two blankets on. It's gets pretty chilly here at night, like 55 or 60 but it feels absolutely freezing to me! I think your blood pressure is probably ok. I went to the dr today and mine was 106/61 I asked if that's low and was told it was good. I was surprised by that. I wish I would have asked about being cold all the time but I forgot. When is your next postop appointment? My advice would be write down everything that you have a question about. I should have done that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TinyMamiOf3kids 1,280 Posted June 12, 2012 It's from not eating and losing weight. That's what my hubby said he thought he had to call the ambulance that's how bad I was shaking.

shellb 9 Posted June 12, 2012 Welcome to the cold, it's a long term side affect of the surgery. For me peronally anything under 75 is freezing and PA always seems to be under 75. When you get the shakes get hubby to crawl under te balnket with you, you'll warm up fast Carry sweaters and jackets everywhere, you'll need them. I'm four years out, the cold feeling never goes away or improves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shellb 9 Posted June 13, 2012 Oh great! I have such a hard time at work cuz all my coworkers are having heat flashes and I'm freezing lol. I always have a sweater! But you'll be buying fashionable sweaters from the sales rack of the skinny department. :-) For me it's warm shoes and something on my neck (scarf or sweater) and I'm ok even at the office. Gloves in the winter are a must. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
