Feeling very cold around knees, flu-like symptoms
Posted , 1 user is following.
For over a month now I've been having flu-like symptoms. After a few separate rounds of proper flu (sore throat, coughing, dry throat etc.), I now am feeling okay, but it seems my sensitivity is very high.
I sleep with a big duvet, and during the day I wear two pairs of long johns and jeans on top. Even so, if I sit for 15-20 minutes my knees feel cold and if I do nothing I slowly develop flu-like symptoms (coughing, sore throat). If I walk outside, or do any physical exercise I feel okay for the time being (I warm up fast though, then start sweating). But I can't be walking all day (today I walked for over an hour). It feels like some bug keeps chasing me and I have to be on the lookout all day without being able to enjoy my life.
As a background, I generally have issues with cold knees, which is strange given this happens to old people and I am 35. Also, during mornings, I generally feel unable to think, as if blood is not circulating well to my head. A coffee helps, but only for a short amount of time. This goes away around 2-3 pm, but not the cold knees issue. I am trying to figure what it is, maybe has to do with my diet, or maybe I generally have something that needs medication.
Should I monitor my blood pressure all day? Any advice is more than welcome! Thanks!
