OMG, I am freezing!
Surgery was the 8th. In the hospital my temp was fine, after getting home Wednesday, I am freezing!! Not running a fever, I check all the time. I am sleeping with 2 blankets and waking up shivering. What gives?? I have had surgery in the past and was never cold like this! I even got the heating pad out for the warmth!!
I used to run hot before surgery.
Immediately after and to this day (1.5 years later) I am still cold.
I used to hate heat and love cold. Now I am not really comfortable unless it is 90 degrees out.
We arent the only ones to have experienced this!

I had my surgery on the 9th. I'm always hot and was looking forward to being cold but no such luck. 😥
I am7 years post op . I am hot all time. Almost all the time. When I was MO - I was cold often, now - not so much.
Maybe they "wired" you like they did me?....

I used to hate the thought of opening up my car at the end of my workday and that blast of oven-hot air... now I look forward to it!
I have been cold since surgery, too. As if my body is saying, if you aren't going to fully fuel me, I am not going to fully heat you. I've have been thinking about getting an electric blanket for my side of the bed.
Usually, I am miserable when summer heats up. This year the warmth has felt glorious and I don't have to fake that I am enjoying the sun.
