Has anybody else had trouble regulating their body temp after getting covid?
Am i crazy here?.....But i am always hot then cold....Or cold then i get hot.
On with sweatshirt....Then off with the sweatshirt..........
I can never seem to find the comfortable spot.

I normally would have no temp problems but now can’t go out in above 20c or feel ill but my main problem is PURPLE feet and lower legs which remain ice cold even in warmth. In summer still bed socks and hot water bottle. Get episodes of feeling faint on getting up.

Yes! I experience this too. Lately it has gotten worse to where my face will turn red and I will start sweating profusely. I can be laying in bed ac on 74 with 2 fans blowing on me and sweat will just pour out of me then it stops I put on dry clothes and then I'm cold. It's extremely frustrating and uncomfortable and adds to my fatigue.

Yes.
And if I have coffee or hot food, I stay hot for awhile.
I tried writing down the time of day it occurs and it seems to happen more often early evening.
I might be wearing my summer pj’s all winter!

I feel chilled most of the day, but by early afternoon I am freezing. When others are hot, I am cold. That said, I’d rather be chilly than too hot. I feel for those who can’t cool off.
