Who needs to change me or the A/C?

I agree with you on the absurdity of this situation. It’s long been a complaint of mine that businesses and offices will keep an indoor temperature in the summertime that they wouldn’t tolerate in the winter, and vice versa. It seems so logical to me that a comfortable temperature would be the same year-round and that both heating and air conditioning should try to maintain that temperature without overcompensating.

Even granted that different temperatures feel optimal to different people, I think those aggressively refrigerated environments are beyond the limit, especially if you are going to walk into a solid wall of heat when you step outside.

I think about all you can do is ask the server or manager if the frosty air could be dialed back a little bit—or at least not seat you directly beneath a blower or vent.

I have that kind of issue in my home. The bedrooms get very hot, but the family room, where I spend the majority of my time is downright cold. My sweet oldest grandson bought me a delightful fleece throw blanket and I use it frequently. I also put a fan in the doorway to blow more cold air down the hall, and that helps.

Do what we Floridians do, bring a cardigan or sweat jacket with you to restaurants, movie theatres, and other indoor places. Very normal in south FL all year long. Men often don’t bother, but most women come prepared. Not that it is scene as feminine if a man does do it. Not that it matters.

Nothing you can do. You can’t control the thermostats of every public building. Wear a sweater.

I had a grand-uncle ( grandmother’s older brother ) that went on a ride with my parents and me, when I was small in the summer in the deserts of southern California, in a non air conditioned car . My Mother asked if he might want to roll up the sleeves on his flannel shirt ( buttoned to the top). He said okay, and he had his long john’s underneath. It was at least 100* F.

@Ltryptophan get ice in your veins like my grand-uncle.

We have no control of the temperature in our office. We are on the ground floor on the North side of the building. We use the space heater through the summer. Most of my patients bring jackets or cardigans with them.

During a heat wave, my wife and I often escape to a movie theater, and enjoy THEIR air conditioning. Chill me to the bone is my motto when it is in the high 90’s and up.

Sometimes feeling cold does not mean its the temperature.
Sometimes its the persons circulation that is a problem.
Get that checked, maybe?
One girl that I knew would freeze when the refridgerator door was opened, and her hands would turn blue colour.
It turned out that she had a circulation problem , I can’t remeber the disease that she discovered that she had?

Found it:Raynards Disease
Circulatory issues are frequently the culprit for color changes in your skin—flushed cheeks from fever or pale fingers from cold weather are but a few examples of ways in which our circulatory system can externally signal us to give our bodies some important attention.

Bluish discoloration of the hands, feet, or other extremities can occur from external causes such as extreme temperature or trauma that has resulted in bruising. Bluish discoloration that results from various internal phenomena is referred to as cyanosis. Aside from these external forces, there are several medical conditions that have cyanosis as a possible symptom including Raynaud’s Syndrome, blood clots, or shock. Raynaud’s syndrome is a circulatory issue that causes decreased blood supply to extremities such as the fingers and toes, causing them to appear discolored and cold. It can be triggered by cold temperatures, stress, or a connective tissue disorder such as systemic lupus. A blood clot in the body can obstruct the flow of blood to extremities such as hands or feet, causing discoloration due to the lack of oxygen in the tissues. Circulatory shock occurs when the body’s tissues have insufficient blood flow. It is accompanied by clammy skin, confusion, unconsciousness, and possible discoloration of the extremities.

If you cannot trace this symptom to an external cause such as cold temperatures or trauma that resulted in bruising, consult your medical provider as soon as possible, as blue hands can be a symptom of more serious underlying conditions.

Raynaud’s phenomenon can also be a result of chemotherapy. Raynaud’s phenomenon is a common delayed toxicity after chemotherapy with vinblastine, bleomycin, and cisplatin in patients with germ cell neoplasms.

The OP didn’t complain about his extremeties, or needing gloves when otherwise they are warm. I’m not sure why Raynaud’s was suggested? My mom has Raynaud’s and she never talks about needing a sweater, she talks about needing gloves and hand warmers, and not being able to hold an iced drink.

Sounds like the indoors is just very air conditioned.

Yes, cranking the AC/thermostat to overcompensate for the weather drives me crazy. But I’d take AC over thermostat any day. Maybe because I prefer to be too cold than to be too hot. In cold weather, you just layer until you’re comfortable. In hot weather, you can only take off so much in public. And some days, even being butt naked is still too hot.

I was just going to add if the OP is always colder than everyone else, the most obvious medical thing to check is iron level and thyroid. But, the OP didn’t complain about always being cold, which is how people who are much colder than most people usually word it.

I’m fine! ;-) ..lots to be thankful for and quite happy!
