Experiencing extreme cold?

Hi guys. Has anyone been experiencing extreme cold post-op? If so, has the doctor explained to you why? I mean besides the obvious of having less padding?

I've been do cold it sometimes hurts.

Any tips or suggestions?

Buy a case of "hotties" they are great for cold hands & feet ... And get used to it because you are going to be cold for a long long time to come!

Make sure you are getting your iron in. That can cause coldness too.

I'm cold all the time... Just layer layer layer!!!!

I'm always freezing. Al-ways. 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. Starbucks has an awesome calm (camomile) tea ;]

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.

I am cold all the time - I now wear sweaters inside my home which I never did before. I assume it is because of the weight loss.

I have stayed cold post op. I went back to work yesterday and the heat in my classroom is not working. I was freezing all day... With my coat on. Today I will wear hat, gloves, and scarf in case it is still broken!
