I thought I was the only one who uses the
pillow method!

Try using a pillow
rather than a blanket. I find that as long as I cover where I can feel
it regulates my temperature. AND, I can pull the pillow around with my
good arm or by mouth to cover/uncover myself.
My name's also Greg and I always feel 10 degrees colder than everyone
else in the room. In the winter, I'll cover my head with the blanket
completely and finally fall asleep. About 3 hours later, I wake up
screaming for someone to take it off because I'm burning up!

I do the same thing you
and Greg do with temperature changes.
I never feel hot
when I am outside, even if it is 100 degrees. I can tell it would be
hot for others,,,but it doesn't register that way for me. I have to
rely on others to tell me my skin is turning red, or I need to go in.
But if I am on the inside and start having a "hot flash" I feel
like I am out in the sun and burning up. Sometimes the burning and
itching gets so bad I have to take benadryl and that makes it so much
better.
I cannot stand the cold
anytime of the year. It is so painful that I don't even want to
move. I have a lap blanket anytime I ride in the car or go grocery
shopping. I go to Sams with sweater on and a lap blanket on my legs so
I can go around the meat and freezers and before I go outside I have to peel
off the layers.
