Hi all, I know this isn't the right sight for this question and to be honest I wouldn't know which site to go onto?!!.

here goes: I'm concerned about mt partner he is 38 quite big built and works outdoors, anyway he sits in the house with a hat and his jacket on saying he's cold?. We're living in a new build and the house isn't cold it's lovely and cosy, no one else in the house is cold just him!. I have tried googling this and come to a dead end?!!. Has anyone got any inclination as to what is up with him? It has to be somthing. Even now as I'm writing this he's on his computer yep with a hat and coat on? I'm sitting here with jeans and a t-shirt on no it's not cold it's lovely any ideas please?. It's bugging me this is?!!. Thanks ladies!!.

      NO it's not a wind HONEST. I'm really concerned it takes hours for him to eventually warm up. I know it's got really cold lately, BUT a jacket and hat in the house?. Even now he still cold? I'm not. And I'm really concerned?.

      If he works outdoors he probably gets the cold in his bones and takes awhile to warm up Hun

    Hi Michelle

    I would get him to see his GP and explain what is going on, as you said something isnt right for him to be cold all the time.

    Could be a vitamin deficiency B12 maybe, - Found this might help:

    When the body is deficient in vitamin B12, a condition known as pernicious anemia, it can't make healthy red blood cells that are needed to carry oxygen throughout your body, and the result is coldness in your hands and feet and a general intolerance to cold temperatures.

    Hope this makes sense might be work a try?

    is he by chance a drinker? 

    my sister is going through this but she has a fatty liver which causes he to be cold all the time her liver is not fuctioning proper or filtering in the right way or maybe he has low blood count it can be a number of things maybe he should go get checked out blood test perhaps good luck

    Could it be his thyroid underperforming? Have a look at the symptoms.

    I would say he is probably anemic.  i used to be anemic and could wear a sweater in the summer.  You just can't seem to get warm.  Have his doctor check to see if he is anemic.
