To wonder why I am always freezing?

I’ve always felt the cold but it seems to be getting worse. It’s got to the point now where I’m anxious about going to other peoples houses because I can’t cope with the temperature. Luckily I live in a particularly warm house. It’s mid terrace and has amazing insulation but even still, I can be cold, even with having jumpers on, sheepskin slippers and being under a blanket.

It is starting to really frustrate me. I find anything under around 22 degrees pretty unbearable. At night I wear jogging bottoms and a jumper to bed as well as thermal socks and I sometimes still wake up cold.

It’s starting to become such a problem for me. I mean, it’s rude to keep your jacket on when visiting friends but no matter how much I wrap up, I just find other peoples houses uncomfortably cold.

I just don’t understand why I’m always so cold in temperatures that everyone else seem to find perfectly fine.

wheat/rice pillows make it worse for me because they are damp. and once they are cool the cold damp

ordinary hot water bottles rock.

Do you have enough body fat?

I was just the same until I started the menopause. All my bloods were normal so I just think a cold person. Those saying excercise it will warm you up, after I've been for a run I get cold very quickly and stay that way all day.

I do struggle a bit with fatigue so I’m thinking anaemia could be quite likely.

Heavy periods? Most common cause of anaemia in women.
