Slim Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Before the SAH I used to be very warm blooded, and I remember in hospital I had to get a fan because the central heating was too hot. But in the last month I feel very cold. I know the outside temp is cold but this never bothered me before. Now I find that a few times during the day and when I go to bed, my feet, hands and nose are freezing! I've now turned into a hotwater bottle hugger!!

Sasbo Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Hello I'm the complete opposite and my internal central heating boiler appears to keep overheating! Hot flushes abound but I don't think it's to do with my age...........if you know what I mean!! It's definitely SAH-related. Sarah x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the winter I'm freezing - I mean really cold & In the summer I'm really HOT I know strange.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Hey I'm not sure whether I've changed or not. Paul said I was complaining of being cold when he came into the hospital - even though it was summer. But generally I've always been nesh and felt the cold. I've always preferred the warmth - probably the Spanish in me coming out!! Sami xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joan Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Being half-Italian and fully mediterranean, I am ALWAYS cold. It seems to have gotten worse with the SAH and I now look like Sweater Lady when working at home. Can't wait for the warmer weather, in short.

Skippy Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Hey J Am beginning to agree with you on the cloning thing - though I am only part Spanish (great great grandma) on mums side and part Irish (great grandma) on dad's side. Oh well at leat Ii am European! And like you can't wait for the summer - hate snow and rain!!! TTFN Sami xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joan Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Sami -- I am living for the day when I can switch from socks and tights to sandals and naked tootsies. All the best, J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Hey J I'm still in sandals and naked tootsies darling - well not today - to ****** cold!!! Sami xxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Personal summers!!!! That's GREAT!!!! I can sure use that one. Here I've heard ladies say "I'm glistening". hahaha I tend toward cold, generally, but then we're having a record spell here of a week of below zero temps at night. I like the winter less and less as I get older. You must get your spring earlier there. We don't have the birds singing just yet. Our spring is usually here to stay by the end of April.

rampmama Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I have really noticed that since my bleed, mmy hands and feet are freezing. I can't even let them touch myself they are so cold. Very odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyp Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Hey guys this reminded me that I was a warm blooded person then after the SAH I reckon I felt the cold for 18months. I have gradually returned to my previous state but it has taken a while. I am now nearly 2 1/2 years post SAH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Hey I have to say that I don't think I've noticed a difference really - I've always been nesh and have always preferred the warmth to the cold - must be the Spanish blood in me!!!

Joan Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Have to say I feel the cold a LOT more than I did before. Some of this is down to weight loss but I feel pretty dumb walking around in a sweater when everyone else is in beachwear!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
