This is a yes for me to, my neuro told me MS can sometimes mess with your internal thermostat - I knew what he meant -lol

I blamed the menopause for years but I am well passed that now!

Good suggestion, Shoshin.  Also, make sure you're not anemic.  That'll keep you colder than a well digger's toe!

I'm not absolutely sure if it's the MS or not, but I do have this problem. I get cold very easily and it seems to get worse every year. I keep having to turn up the heat a little bit more. And wear more layers.

I also have cold hands and cold feet and legs. Cold to the touch. A neuro did tell me that that probably came from MS and he said it was common.

I don't know about the all-over cold thing. I did have my thyroid tested (it was normal) and you might have that checked just in case.

with the weather changes it can mess up your system... I know.. my body thermostat doesn't work very well either... I wear little gloves in the house, and use those heating pads that you warm up in the microwave... blankets.. put them in the dryer first to wam up..

stay warm...

I am not dx but I experience these extremes in internal temperature.  So far I haven't found a solution.  I complained so much my GP sent me for an ABI to see if I had PAD.

The ABI was normal.  I guess is just one of those things we have to learn to live with.

Maybe someone else will have some ideas.
