Cold since surgery - is this normal?

I had my band and port removed on 8/10 and ever since then, I am FREEZING cold!!!! I have no earthly clue as to why!

I walk around the house in a heavy fleece bathrobe, house slippers, with the thermostat set on 75!!!! I turned off all of the fans and enjoy going outside in the hot humid 89 degree weather....in my fleece bathrobe because my body thinks it nice outside!

I can tell you, that is not me. Usually I am turning the thermostat to 70, tuning ceiling fans and room fans on to stay cool. What in the world is wrong with me? My husband and son are suffering because I am so cold. I often have to get in a hot shower to get warm!

Anyone else experience this after any surgery?
