Cold

I am 3 months post op and am cold ALL the time. I wear sweatpants and sweatshirts and sleep with an electric blanket, even though it is 80+ degrees. I had my thyroid # checked as I have hypothyroidism and they came back in the normal range. Does/has anyone experienced this and have some insight on it?

    Yep...I remember those days too. Me and my husband used to fight because I wanted the air conditioning on all the time before surgery. Then after I smoked him out with the heat. Lol!

    I was always cold before my surgery, now I break out into a sweat randomly it's very annoying and foreign to me. I am menopausal but this has only been since being sleeved. My surgery date was 6/25/15, I hope this side effect ends.
