==Coping with temperature sensitivity== I apparently have a genetic predisposition to temperature sensitivity, with many family members on one side having this problem. * "Listen" to my body to notice where I need to cover up. I may need socks, may need more layers, whether long underwear or extra t-shirts. * Have warm robes handy to quickly heat up as well as a cube heater. Have a space heater (with thermostat ideally) to keep a stable temperature at night in room with house otherwise with central heating. * Take levothyroxine for my hypothyroidism (prescribed for me as one 50 mg a day, optionally substituting one 75 mg every other day) but carefully avoid too high of a dose due to increased anxiety and thereby increased lack of sleep. * If I start coughing, sniffling, or sneezing (without a cold), I have found that putting more layers on, even if I do not feel cold yet, almost immediately stops this.
