Weird Heating Sensation

I am wondering if the following is considered normal for most folks post-op?

My internal temperature has been on the cold side lately where my hands and feet get really cold. To warm up, I have been drinking some hot sugar-free caramel apple cider. For every gulp, i feel it going down until it hits bottom at which point I get a huge burst of radiating heat.

It goes pretty low, almost 2-3 inches below belly button ( perhaps this is bottom of stomach or intestines, don't know). Do others get this sudden burst of radiating heat?

This didn't occur prior to surgery. I am currently 3 months post-op and about 100 lbs lost. This is not a huge concern, but is a weird sensation.

Not to ignore your direct question, but you are going to get odd sensations as your stomach heals - remember you have nerv endings that were severed, blood vessels re-routing, tissue reconnecting - alot is going on right now...it is also why it is really important to measure food portions before you eat, you can actually be too full and it not register sometimes, even when it does others.

Let us know what you find out, please :)
