Cold intolerance



Recommended Posts

I'm also cold...even in California. Long pants slippers. Shirt and jacket. Heating pad(my best friend) and a blanket. And hubby in t-shirt and shorts. All this just to sit and watch a tv show with him I do now use an electric blanket at night because I can't get into a cold bed and warm it up like I used to. One of the ONLY things I truly is about my fat!

I'll take that California kind of cold!! Its 12 degrees going down to 3 brrrrr

I wear a winter scarf and sweatshirt at work and I am still cold. I was actually was tested to see if I was anemic last time I saw my Doctor and when he gave me the results he said "yup, just as I thought (at which point I thought the worst) no anemia". "You're cold because well its cold and you've lost well over 250lbs of insulation. I recommend you put more layers on".

Thanks Doc...any chance you could give me a prescription to go to St Thomas for a couple of months out of the year?

I just ordered some hothands mittens with overnight delivery. I literally can't function because my right hand feels like I'm walking around holding a bag of ice. next week I may order the heated socks for my frozen feet. and this is all inside! the heating pad and I have a very close relationship. I've had this problem for years, but it's extremely bad this year. (one year out from surgery)

Have never liked the cold and yes now it worse. Also I have hypothyroidism and that makes it worse. Ugh.
