Sleepy and Cold!

It was mid 80's today and I asked hubby to please not turn on the air conditioner. I've had a space heater going near me and a blanket .... and I'm still cold. Hubby has been hot and sweating and I'm wishing for the heat to go above 85! I've never been like this before! I find this incredible... and it will be a big plus for our electric bill this summer if it stays the same. I've also been sleepy all day. I think it's because I feel so cold. I've been taking all my vitamins, getting in most of my protein, and doing pretty good on my fluids. I took a long nap under a pile of covers this afternoon ... and feel like going to bed now. I hope I feel warmer tomorrow .... and that I'm not as sleepy. ; ) I'm on my pureed diet and about 2 ozs. of anything and I'm totally satisfied. I'm not hungry at all, either. This is all so very different. I don't mind ... except I hope my thermostat resets at least a little or I'm going to have to wear a jacket or sweater all summer and try to keep my teeth from chattering!
Blessings and Best Wishes! Shelly

I am so hoping I get cold with my surgery!  I hate sweating!!!  It will be an unexpected bonus!               I understand it gets better with time.  We talked about it at support group on Thursday night. Denise

I guess I never realized my thermostat was in my stomach!  Just joking...but something happened. My temperature sensing is a good 10 - 15 degrees below everybody else, at least! Your surgery will be here soon .... so if it follows mine, you should be comfortable all summer without AC. ; )

Unfortunately that was just a temporary thing for me, I am back getting hot again, :o( But it was nice while it lasted. I hope you get your energy back.

Most days I have had plenty of energy. It's just today I've been very sleepy. So, I guess I'll just sleep extra today. I have been taking a good, hot bath every night just to warm up before going to bed. I do my thermostat goes a little closer to normal before winter ... or we'll have BIG propane costs ... or more yarn costs so I can knit some soft, wool sweaters .... and more afghans. : )
