@mikejjb123 when I have had gastritis, my stomach hurt and felt cold inside. It a strange feeling indeed. Are you taking medication for the gastritis? It’s an inflammation of the stomach lining that causes all that but I can’t remember if the doctor gave me an antibiotic or something else for it…

My husband had a bout of feeling so cold he couldn't even warm up in the bathtub. His temperature was normal, but he said he just felt awful, and cold despite being under an electric blanket later. We took him to a walk-in where his blood work showed his white count was very high. He was hospitalized for sepsis, but they couldn't locate the area of infection. He was given antibiotics, and watched closely in the ER. Later an endoscopy identified an infected area they felt had precipitated the sepsis. I'm glad we took him to see a doctor.

Feeling cold is also a symptom of low thyroid hormones. I know my dose is off when I get cold and fatigued.

The most likely cause to chills / feeling very cold publicised is an infection , is your body temp also elevated at times ?
Wishing you wellness . 🙌

What is your weight and body fat, the lower my weight from cancer the more easily I get cold. My body fat is non existent which is an issue for insulation. I'm 130 plus of just hydrated muscle. You need a proper combo
