Overheating is miserable, but being cold hurts like , you know. Both make it so you can't think straight and it gets hard to be patient and nice to everyone. A few hours of it and I'm not fit for human company. A dog would be nice. john -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [email protected] Sent: Sun, 11 Feb 2007 5:33 PM Subject: RE: [QUAD-L] severe chills
My 65 pound Golden Retriever “service dog” at my side in bed doesn’t resolve much but it sure is comforting From: Jessica Ann Gordon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 11, 2007 1:23 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] severe chills i am ALWAYS cold. i hate it and feel like no one understands how frustrating it can be. i know heating pads can be dangerous but it's worth the risk to me! an awesome alternative though, can be found here: http://grampasgarden.com/product_hot_cold_natural_therapy.asp they sell microwavable blankets, neck wraps, socks, mittens, scarves, headbands, etc. i have the body shawl and it warms me right up. if i'm extra cold i'll put it on my head. looks funny but does the trick. i highly recommend these products and they seem like the perfect solution for u in a care facility -- just need your own microwave! careful to feel for hot spots though before putting it anywhere w/out sensation -- i have burned myself badly after too much time in the microwave. jessica On Feb 11, 2007, at 1:03 PM, Dan Tessiatore wrote: I feel very cold off and on. I layer my clothing and use a hat like you do. I also use a high tight turtleneck. They seem to help me. I think it helps keep the heat in. Get warm... Dan T.

What I would like to know, is if anybody else suffers from extreme chills radiating from the core of the body with no apparent cause or solution. The heat at 76+ degrees and multiple layers including hat and scarf do not help. I am currently staying at an extended care facility where they do not allow us to use heating pads, hot water bottles, or electric blankets. I try to drink as much hot tea and coffee as I can throughout the day in hopes to do some warming from the inside out, also to no avail. Any ideas or solutions would be most appreciated.
