Feeling very hot

[Trogengirl]

Can somebody help me , I keep suffering from very hot temperature ,suffer from anxiety, the doctors do not seem to help

Hi, I get sudden bouts of really hot temperature too - I go bright red! The doctor suggested it may be due to Fibro making me susceptible to changes in hormones and also being oversensitive to external temperature. Maybe being anxious contributes too as stress makes you feel hot.

Has your doctor ruled out any other cause (people with fibromyalgia tend to get thyroid problems too)?

I too have anxiety on top of everything and it doesn't help. I have to work everyday on bringing my anxiety down to function. Breathing exercises mostly.

Hi like you I have anxiety attacks feel really hot on occasions and sometimes really frustrated,where the least little thing really upsets me. I think that we all find a way of dealing with it. Knowing that there are others out there,and being able to communicate with others helps I don't feel as isolated as I did when I was first diagnosed.To help with my anxiety I listen to a cd one that reminds me of the sea and think about places that I find to be peaceful, it doesn't cure it but can help. Unless you are a fellow sufferer you don't know what it's like to live with.

Hi again Trogengirl

Just wanted to say that, Charto1979 makes a good point that it might be worth asking your GP to do a full Thyroid Profile to check any Thyroid issues. Let us know how you get on
