I can't help you but I can empathize. My husband asked the other day if he could put my little ceramic space heater in storage now. I said, "No! I still use it when I am sitting at my machine." I probably will all summer. If it is under 80° and I am sitting still I have to have something to keep me warm!
Being cold all the time is not normal. It's a symptom. I was that way for years. A new Dr. asked me if I stayed cold more then usual. I had told other Drs about my coldness but it was dismissed when my thyroid test kept coming back normal. Normal for thousands of women but not normal for me. The new Dr. said the results were in the low normal range which most Drs think is fine. He did further tests and now I'm on medication for my thyroid and I lost my extra weight and have more energy. Find a specialist and find out why you are so cold all the time. It's important.
