Guest guest Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 Hi , yes, I agree with what you say about feeling hot if it is hormonal, that it is like a general flushing (with me it is upper body only) When I am feeling hot when I first wake up, I feel very hot but my skin feels cold and clammy, not at all like a hot flash Lynda ----- Original Message ----- From: NaughtyNeedler I experienced this feeling hot phenom on this previous Saturday when I was feeling slightly ill, and when I took my temp it was 96.2, yet I felt warm to the touch and my breath felt hot. Just my experience. Don't understand it. When I'm hot due to hormones it usually isn't such an inner feeling of hotness, it is more of an unnatural flushing of blood to the face, etc. My breath isn't hot, but my skin is even hotter to the touch than as described above.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 >obviously, the low temp isn't normal so there must be something >going on. A low temp is a strong indication that you are underdosed. If it was me, I'd go ahead and raise to 2 1/2 grains if I hadn't had any bad reaction to the Armour so far. But do what you feel most comfortable with, of course. We're behind you all the way!! Janie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 > I'm hoping the T3 in the Armour I've ordered will help with reducing the anxiety issues that I've begun to experience. I'm hoping that right with you. Armour has changed SO many symptoms in folks that there's no reason it can't do the same for you!!

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 Hi Lynda and EveryOne, I notice that when I feel very hot it is because my temperature is dropping, not rising. Sometimes when you have a fever you feel cold as your temperature is rising, same thing in reverse. Like you when I take my temperature at the times I feel hot, usually evening and at night, my temp is low though not as low as yours. Sometimes it feels to me like my body is so used to a low temperature and as it starts to rise it won't let it go up to 98.6 but instead I feel very warm even break out in a sweat sometimes, and the heat is lost..........not sure if that is what is really happening but that is what it feels like to me. Some kind of homeostasis. I have reached 98.6 in the evenings a few times and am hoping my body will get used to it and decide to stay there awhile:-)) I've been taking Cortef 5mg. am and again in the early afternoon for a total of 10mg./day plus the Adrenal support from Enzymatic Therapy, sometimes Isocort and 3 to 3,1/2 Armour a day in divided doses. Feel pretty good but my temperature is still below 98.6 most of the time.
