Can't Seem To Get Warm

I can't get warm. It's like the coldness is coming from the inside out and no matter how many blankets I pull over me or the fact that I have booties and gloves on, I'm shivering.
Could this be a side effect of coming down off Savella? I didn't find it written anywhere but was wondering if anyone else noticed this happened to them when they went off. I know of another hand full of people that tried it and went off. I'm drinking a lot of hot tea but that only warms me until it's gone and then I have to pee three times. lol Anyone else every experience this? Is this fibro too? I mean, I've been cold before but never noticed it coming inside out. GO PHILLIES!!!!! Posted on 11/03/09, 12:11 am |

I would say if you are coming off of a drug that more than likely it's withdrawls. Hang in there!

Do you have one of these heat bags?? you know the ones you put in the microwave? I've had similar side effects before and found that if i put this over my wrists where the blood flows it realy helped. I also had a bath as hot as I could possibly take it and kept the door closed to keep the heat in until I was sweating. Anythings worth a try xx

i get the same way. freeezing. i use my electric blanket on high. wear a flannel nightie and a bed jacket and a fleece over my shoulders. it's almost painful to feel so cold.wish i had changed the windows in my house when we remodeled. too cheap. the cold blasts in on the glass. my poodle heats me up and sometimes my heating pad. i keep a shawl at the end of the bed for the worst of it. the best thing is the sun coming in strong in the morning. the old dog and i sit in the warmth, basking in sunlight.

Oh you poor thing, I hate being cold, but to be honest I have forgotten how that feels, I am like an oven most days. Wish I could hug you and warm you up. It would take no time at all.
I am sending you some warm thoughts. Gentle warm hugs, Sherrall

Never thought of withdrawal symptom from coming off Savella but it might be true; this cold is coming from within me I know; tried all kinds of external remedies but still getting the "shakes"; but not too bad today so that's good; thanks for all your help; don't know what I would do with your support thats for sure!

That is how I feel all winter. I think it is just a fibro thing. It is so hard to get warm and the only thing that works for me is a super hot bath. Try it , it works. I know what you mean about the tea thing. I've gotta pee constantly when I drink it.
