Temperature control...

I am experiencing a temperature control issue. Not in our home, within my being. You know when you feel chilled that most normal people have a fever? Well, that’s what I thought at first, but instinctively one would have their temperature taken to figure out if they needed a fever reducer to ingest, correct? And surprise instead of going up; I was going down nearly to 96F, even, how odd? PS Normal is anywhere around 98F to 100F, I do believe. And so I looked it up, and sure enough it is another symptom, not this time of my Multiple Sclerosis but this time my new found out malady, as of November, of Hypothyroidism! Odd how with the MS I am heat sensitive and now with this new thingy I am cold sensitive too, talk about ups and downs, hmm? The last couple of days beside my shoulder being a pain and constant on here, even now, my throat has been causing me trouble too. It feels as if I have glass in my throat and as if I am being strangled, and the glands appear to be swollen. Yep a doc visit is in order and I do have an appointment to get checked out. And so due to these uncomfortable maladies I will be saying a happy good night now, earlier than usual and ask you to kindly count those blessings and share those overages and we will too! And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?

Tilda, feeling hot and cold when everyone else is comfortable is a real challenge. I had heat exhaustion while I was in Rehab last summer-they took me outside when the temperature was in the upper 90s.Scared them and Rich and my visiting brother.But needing a heavy comforter almost every evening is silly, too. Thank goodness for ceiling fans and heaters! Hope you feel better and can get some good sleep.
