Have what was called "mild" hypothyroidism, probably Hasimoto's as a result of Sjogren's, but don't think that's the reason for my change in heat/cold tolerance.

Never could stand extremes of either cold or heat, but since this thing began, can stand cold by far better than heat. Going too close to the oven when the food is done or the clothes dryer after it stops and the heat gets to my face makes me jump back because it burns. Only need one lightweight blanket even in winter. That's a BIG change from previously.

Nobody has been able to explain this.

Oh, well.

I just wish that there were more consistent "rules"...sometimes a breeze on my feet or legs is soothing, and other times it's painful. If there were rules, you could preemptively manage things a little better.:confused:

And I get what you're saying Sheltiemom, nobody ever seems to explain anything to my satisfaction either.

Ohh I wish we could swap for ten mnutes, it is 1am here and my feet are so hot even an ice pack isn't cooling them down , I have forgotten what cold feet feel like.
You have my every sympathy.
