Cold spells

Posted , 13 users are following.

Hi Ladies!

Do any of you get cold spells that just come on you out of nowhere? My last period which just ended two days ago, had me feeling really crazy. I kept getting cold chills off and on and crashing fatigue. You know the kind of fatigue where you feel like you may just collapse if you don't lie down immediately? It was so scary. I am so tired of all these crazy hormones! Someone let me off this crazy busy ride, please!!!!

      I felt like I had some kind of bug too when this first started. It's so strange. I usually get hot flashes though. I guess the pendulum decided to swing in the other direction, huh?

    Hi!

    I totally get cold spells out of nowhere all the time lately. Doctor said thyroid issues can cause that but mine's working fine. I don't know about you but I'm pretty sure it beats hot flashes!

      Yes I've had the cold shivery feeling with with hot clammy hands, especially when anxious. Sage seems to have helped wtith the flushes. 

      I do love feeling cold now, when in the past I could cry if too cold!

    I just got mines this morning and I am freezing, chills, I'm sitting at work with my jacket on and it's doing nothing. My head feels weird and I just want to get in the bed. I am so over this stuff.

    Hi Sharcer,

    I've had lots of cold spells in the past but it comes and goes. I would simply keep myself warm and put on a few layers of clothing. It just the hormones playing up. 

    One thing that works for me is having a warm glass of water with lemon and having a green smoothie for breakfast using green vegetables.I'm not sure if it will be your kind of thing.

      Thank you Cassie! I think it's starting to taper off. I'm starting to feel my normal body temperatures returning. I still have on my layers just in case it comes back because it was off and on. I figured it was my silly hormones doing their thing yet again.
