Anyone overheat with crohns disease?

Hi Artist Guy...what do you mean when you say you have had 9 ft mechanically removed?

I am always having severe hot flashes. My gyn feels it still could be from menopause, but I think it's a combo of meds, inflammation, etc. I went through menopause about 12 years ago so it seems that the hot flashes should have stopped by now. Drives me, and my husband, crazy.

are you guys also having vision problems, migraines, sleep problems, jaw pain/enlarged, a deep voice, large hands and feet, joint pain, night sweats, small skin outgrowths, facial feature changes that have happened gradual (check photos online)?


Have you had your blood IGF levels checked?

I'm just putting this out there since it really seems like a common problem. If you were to see anybody trained in Chinese Medicine, like an acupuncturist, they would tell you that it's super common for people with digestive problems to overheat. It's one of their symptoms that helps diagnose the problem. I love going to acupuncture treatments, and they can really help but if you're really sick you have to go a lot...and that can get $$.

I definitely overheat. When I'm comfortable everyone else is cold. And when everyone else is comfortable I'm hot.

Bane, have you had this "fainting" business checked out? Too low blood pressure? Orthostatic hypotension? Potassium levels? Are you considerably underweight? Are you anemic?

And, by the way, when I eat my main meal of the day, my body is so busy digesting the food it doesn't have the energy to maintain my body heat and I get CHILLS, I don't care how hot it is inside or outside, I get CHILLED. And it takes a long time and drastic measures to get warmed up again: usually fleece shirts, sleeping bag, bed blankets and comforter and "sleep it off".
