I just have a jacket in the car constantly due to it. Drink hot herbal tea to stay warm internally and it helps get Fluid in.

Vicki Loichinger 444 Posted December 27, 2012 I am much colder than befoe surgery. Where a robe all day. And If I go out and get cold, wow takes forever to get warm again. It is like you are cold all the way to your bones. If my incisions were all healed I would sit in a warm bath. But that will have to wait for a little longer. And you just know when you take a warm shower you are going to be freezing before you get dressed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
