I can add a comment on this problem...

I am EXTREMELY sensitive to being cold since developing neuropathy. My symptoms become more pronounced and more widespread. I get these "rushes" in localized areas of my body that are similar to that "chill up and down your spine" feeling.

I do everything I can to stay warm, and my symptoms are better in the warm months than cold. I live in a very hot area of the country now that it's summer, and I ridiculously carry sweaters or jackets anywhere where I might have to spend a prolonged amount of time in cold air conditioning. I learned that after doing everything I could to not shiver in the dentist's chair.
