Yup, I do the same thing. One minute I'm freezing, and the next, I'm so

hot, the fan comes on. I heard someone say our bodies thermostats are

no longer so good at regulating any more. It feels true to me.

I just joined this group and started scrolling down the messages to

see which of them were of the most interest to me.

I also have the body temperature fluxuation. It almost seems as if my

body is the reverse of my wife and kids. At times I will turn the

heat up in the house and they complain that it is already too hot.

Other times I am sweating and they are covered with blankets

complaining that it is cold.

Also, I have found that I seem to sweat profusely while just sitting

or standing around.

I have to jump in on this one. The sweat is terrible!!!! Right

now I'm ready to turn the air conditioner on. Hubby would

probably have a fit. You never know when the sweats are going

to hit. Just hope that your deodorant does it's job. lol

Hello everyone..

I've noticed that over the past few months I have been experiencing body

temperature problems. So far this evening, my body temp has flip-flopped

twice.. first my feet get ice cold, then my whole body feels like it's cold,

then a while later, it's just the opposite.

Which led me to wonder if any of my other fibromites have experienced this

same freaky occurrence....

..can anyone relate?

October 12, 2001

After spending all summer with a constant low-grade fever, my temp

has started to flip-flop, too. I don't touch the thermostat until

I've asked everyone else in the house whether it's warm or cool

or " just me. " It's always " just me. "

My husband jokes that MOST people's bodies have a regulatory method

of maintaining the same temp, despite environmental temperatures. My

body, however, seeks to change the environment by altering it's own

temperature. Sometimes a room will cool down 10 degrees simply by my

walking into it! (or it will heat up, depending...)

It is really getting tiresome. I wonder if this is what

menopause " hot flashes " are like?

Jane,

No, this is not what hot flashes are like. I know all about that, too. I

was pre-menopausal in my late 30's. The Dr.'s say that severe stress can

bring it on early, and in my case, it would've been my Mom's death. When I

told them about it, they said that would definitely have an affect on my

body. Since then, I've had an hysterectomy. There is really no way to

describe hot flashes. If I could, I would. I'm on HRT now (hormone

replacement therapy), and if I miss several days, I can really feel it, and

my family can tell by my 'moods', shall we say!

Have you been checked for diabetes ? I had the same problem. Extremes

in temp sometimes my body was even hot and cold simultaneousely !

They tested me for early menopause but that was a no...they had been

checking my sugar for about a year..turns out it was fluctuating and

it just never showed up on the tests until a year later when they got

a reading of 481 ! They put me on diabeta, and I excluded sugar and

starch from my diet. The temp problems went away..but then I got all

loopy..really sick like I was losing my mind..turns out my diabetes

had gone away and was now hypoglycemic..yet I had been on the

diabeta. People with Fibro are prone to these fluxes. The only thing

you can do is treat them as they occur. if you havn't been tested, or

even if you have..keep getting tested regularly. krystal P.S. It got

so bad once..I needed a bath and was in a hurry...ran the water and

it ran cold..or so I thought. I was in such a hurry I didn't care and

jumped in and bathed. It was only after I got out that I noticed my

entire body was burned.

October 14, 2001

Krystal,

Yep, I've been checked through the years, but mine was definitely

menopausal. After the surgeon did my hysterectomy (my uterus had somehow

adhered itself to my abdominal wall), and I began HRT, my hot flashes went

away. As for the temperature changes I feel now (related to fibro), it's

just like I have a case of the flu, only multiplied many times over, and it

only really bothers me when I am running here and there, trying to get way

more done than I should. As a matter of fact, my husband can tell by

looking at me when this is happening, because I act like I have the flu! He

says it's weird, then he says, well, let's consider the subject matter! Ha!

Ha!

Hope you all have a great Sunday!

Carol
