Have you had your thyroid and hormones checked by an endocrinologist? Did you get thyroid bloodwork and an ultrasound of your thyroid? Changes and dysfunction in thyroid can impact body temperature and cause overheating sensation plus affect organs and heart/lung function.

Especially Hashimoto’s thyroid because that is autoimmune. After a COVID infection, I’d always consider whether autoimmune dysfunction has triggered a response in the body.
Because it might be a cortisol issue, I’d also think about the adrenal glands. Article from Nature.com
“Late-onset of adrenal gland insufficiency in patients who recovered from SARS-CoV-2 infection could be a direct consequence of persisting dysregulation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis, reactivation of latent viral infections, such as cytomegalovirus, or an autoimmune response against key factors involved in the regulation of adrenocortical cell function.”
