I know what you mean about the crazy temperature regulation, I spent years doing ‘cardigan on’ and ‘cardigan off’ manoeuvres most of the day. Since my accident, part of my body would go freezing cold, like mid arm, or upper calf, whilst below it and above it were warm, it didn’t make sense. Sometimes my legs were like blocks of ice – like those of a dead person – this coldness also brought with it serious PAIN!

The sweating episodes were mad too, I’d wake up freezing cold, yet wet through with sweat – weird! Or during the day, I’d be normal one minute, then head and neck sweating profusely the next.

Thank goodness I’m much much better now. I’m curious, have you had a spinal injury at all?
Regards
