Definitely have your endocrinologist check your levels. With more than 40 lbs. less fat (congratulations on your loss!), you might feel a little chillier this winter—but not that much.

If your thyroid levels come back fine, see your GP to rule out other causes.

I agree there can be other health issues which can cause sensitivity to cold which are well worth looking into.

Because of your nodules and goiter, I'm starting to wonder if you are experiencing trouble in changing t4 to t3s, the only way to find out is to see a specialist. Problem is finding someone well versed enough to define the problems from the several possible causes. Depending on where you live there can be a blanket refusal to prescribe t3 or combination of 3 and 4 or natural from pigs or cows, which is t4, t3, t2 and t1, all in the right balance.

(For those who have had a hysterectomy, you no longer produce t2, these were probably my life line and had my thyroid problems been addressed much much earlier I would not have needed the op. My health really hit the skids after mine. My subsequent symptoms were "impossible" after the op, according to my allocated doctor. On educating myself I discovered they were not) The overpowering "knowledge" is giving other than t4 makes absolutely no difference in the majority of people????? Most Medics do not have thyroid issues themselves and do not necessarily have our symptoms. Anything not run of the mill seems to be disregarded or taken as irrelevant. Even the local endocrinology consultant told me feeling cold is nothing to do with thyroid issues!!!! I was left wondering who was his professor. From reading various books, consulting "Stop the thyroid madness", site, as well as English speaking national support sites, seems to indicate they have undergone different training.

Vitamins and minerals do help with this change particularly selenium which has been shown to reduce antibodies in those who have them.

Sounds as if you are doing all you can, I hope you find the right support soon.

I hope it all come good soon. I send a hug for the interim.

Research Raynald's - It is common with thyroid patients. I was experiencing it frequently prior to being on Armour.

I suffer from the bone chills also and have noticed a couple of things. I tend to experience them shortly after eating, if I have been in a cold place, and when I am tired. I suspect that fluctuations in my blood sugar levels sets off the cold spells and I am just highly sensitive to cold temperatures. Once I get cold, it is hard to recover and stop shivering. I try to bundle up more and use hats and gloves if I have to go out. I also find that if I eat healthfully and on schedule, the chills are milder or I don't get them as often. Keep warm, stay rested and keep your body fueled. It really helps.

I have Renauds, and I get cold all the time. I have a finger that turns completely white, and my toes and bottoms of my feet will turn blue and go numb.

I just had a blood test done today, and waiting on the results. Past few years, my levels have been fine. But now that I am down 60+, I am wondering if this could have affected it or it's just me and my coldness. LOL

Best of luck I hope you figure it out. I feel your pain, my husband actually bought me really nice gloved and wool socks this winter, so my hands and feet would be nice and toasty. Now that it is spring, you would think I wouldn't need them, but I still wear the socks at home. My feet are always cold.

I can definitely relate to feeling colder than everyone else. I take a jacket or jumper with me everywhere, I have a stash at work and at least one in the car. I have Congenital Hypothyroidism so feeling cold is normal for me. I remember my teachers being quite concerned when I wouldn't take my cardigan off at school (in the middle of summer) and I was sent to counselling at one stage which just confused me more. I wasn't being abused (and hiding bruises), I wasn't seeking attention (I got it anyway) and it wasn't a 'security blanket' I was just feeling cold in the middle of a Brisbane summer.
Meds have been checked, all is well and I still have the issue with cold but, I manage it much better than I used to.

I also echo those voices that say that if you're feeling cold all the time, you probably need a higher dose (or something else is going on). Before I was diagnosed, I had cold hands and feet ALL the time. After finally getting the correct diagnosis 10+ years after first suspecting, to not have cold hands/feet all the time seems like a miracle. Or not to always have my hoodie on (or get teased about it from friends/co-workers).
