Guest guest Posted July 19, 2002 Report Share Posted July 19, 2002 I overheat all the time too but I am not sure if I do because of the Fibro or Hypoglycemia or both. overheating i'd like to hear if more of you have problems with overheating. i've only seen the one message that mentioned it. i have a real problem with it...doesn't matter where i am or what i'm doing. i can be sitting in church and everyone else is comfortable and i'm burning up. i dread going shopping. as soon as i walk in the store or mall..i'm instantly hot. i've wondered if it's menopause, altho' my gyny says no...but as i think about it it started about 3-4 years ago same time i realized that i probably have fms. so embarassing standing there dripping when others are cold or comfortable. and to think i use to lay out in the sun on purpose....boy those days are over. anyone else have this problem? sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2002 Report Share Posted July 19, 2002 I have noticed that some of the antidepressants I have been on have made me very hot. Effexor XR was really bad but Zoloft didn't affect me at all. I have just started on prozac again after a year of being off and will see if that one does it also. Just because your gyn said it isn't menopause doesn't mean it's not peri-menopause. I have read that hot flashes can start a couple years before the actual onset of menopause.

Yes, I have a problem with it. I use to really be able to take all kinds of heat and loved it! Now, I get overheated if I have to iron one or two small things! The standing in front of the oven can make me feel too hot or the stove too for that matter. When I know I'm going to be doing something really hot, I get one of those neck thingies that you soak in water to help keep me cool. That doesn't work on those times when I suddenly get hot for no reason. Nope, not in pre menopause. Darcy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2002 Report Share Posted July 19, 2002 Yes, I do have the problem with overheating. It happens to me a lot. I am just dripping with perspiration when I am in the mall or someone's house, at work. I used to be cold all the time. No more,my hubby is usually the warm one, now it's me.

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2002 Report Share Posted July 19, 2002 < > Sharon, you're definitely NOT alone. I have had the same problem for years and was half-convinced that being overweight was a factor. When I was first diagnosed with FMS, I was living with my parents-- a terribly humbling thing for an independent 28 year old woman, I must say! My mother is thin, has Rheumatoid Arthritis and is *constantly chilled. We fought over the thermostat for weeks until, frustrated to my wits' end at being horribly hot and uncomfortable, I finally said, " Mom, you can always put more clothes on, but there's only so much I can take off before I'm naked! " At that point, we just looked at each other and laughed. Soon after, we reached an agreement on the thermostat. In the summer, I rarely leave my air-conditioned home during the day, unless it's to get into an air-conditioned car and go to some air-conditioned location. The heat gives me horrible headaches and the humidity really wreaks havoc on my fibro symptoms. So, no beach, zoo, or park outings or afternoons spent gardening for me these days... much to my disappointment. -Mareth, who's already dreaming of cool, crisp, autumn weather... ~*~*~*~*~*~ There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; my philosophy is kindness. --The Dalai Lama _________________________________________________________________ Join the world’s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2002 Report Share Posted July 19, 2002 Sharon, Isn't it funny how you think you are the only one with a certain problem and then you read a message from someone else and you think " Wow. someone else out there feels this way. " That's how I feel ALL the time, too, Sharon!! Same with me no matter what I am doing or where I am, I stay hot, dripping with swaet And yes it is embarassing. I stay in an air contionined house with a fan on my face constantly!!!I have a really hard time doing just about anything. Oh, Boy!!! I can be in a complete sweat by doing nothing. What was funny, I, too, sit in church burning up. People laugh and call me " fanny " . Constantly fanning my face. Thanks so much for your post, Sharon. Of course that's what this group is all about, right? Each person giving someone else a moment of hope by knowing you are not alone.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2002 Report Share Posted July 20, 2002 Hi everyone. I'm new to the list and will send a bio later. When my fibro is in a flare, that is when I can be sitting in a cold room and be sweating. It's very aggravating. I've been diagnosed with the fibro for about 12 yrs now. I'm 47. I have all the symptoms for about 10 yrs before that. I've been on SSDI for 4 yrs now. territa58 wrote: > --- When my CFS is flaring, I run a low-grade temp and BURN UP. > > In @y..., " sharon28753 " wrote: > >> i have a real problem with it...doesn't matter where i am or what > i'm > > doing. i can be sitting in church and everyone else is comfortable > > and i'm burning up.
