Temperature intolerance and sensitivity - Autonomic Neuropathy?

Here's a new one, anybody? The sun on top of my scalp...through mounds of hair... for 5 minutes...
It felt as though someone held an iron to my head. At first, I touselled my hair to cool it down, then quickly moved from this warm object I used to LOVE to feel on my skin.
I share with you all simply because you legitimately understand that I'm not being dramatic in my description but describing actual sensory feelings (well misfires).

@rwinney Hi, Rachel! With neuropathy, nothing amazes me! After all, we have nerves throughout our bodies, and depending on what kind they are, they let out various signals. That is why my feet can ache, burn, be freezing cold, feel soaking wet when they are not, etc. And various odd things can happen all at the same time, depending on what type of nerves are involved. Just a bunch of different types of nerves with various messed up sensations. With autonomic neuropathy, I think you really can get a hodge podge of oddities. Sadly though, they can be bothersome, to horrid. Could you ever have imagined cutting and coloring your hair to be so crazy? I think we all could write a book on this. I hope, at least, your hair looks darling. Oh the agony! Oh the ecstasy! Love you, Lori

Why do you have to be such a drama queen? (Couldn't resist, sorry.) So, allodynia, right? I just learned that term recently. Have you had other occurrences of allodynia? Hopefully not another new disturbing thing to add to your already super long list of health issues. Sorry I'm no help, just sympathetic.
