I'm three weeks post op today, and all is going really well. Except for the fact I'm always cold. I can never keep my hands and feet warm. Does anyone else have this problem post op?
I'm 5 months post op and felt very cold in the early days. I would shiver in bed with two winter duvets on but for me feeling cold these days is less and less.
Thanks for the guys, I was one of the warmest people and hardly ever felt the cold it's so weird. I went to the coast yesterday, it was a gorgeous day but I didn't think it was warm as there was a really cool breeze coming from the sea, on several occasions I considered putting on my jumper. Got home and found it I had burnt... not good
Well yeah... I mean, it's not the same reply for everyone, but those who have lost a lot of weight... you've also lost a lot of insulation! Thin people tend to be colder than fat ones, fact of life and science!
Haha no your not. I get the fact that we may have lost body fat and that's the reason why we feel the cold. But my issue started just after surgery when I wasn't as light as what i am now. I was freezing in hospital even with a jumper on, my hands nose and feet are permanently cold !
