Last night in bed I absolutely could not get warm. My teeth were even chattering. I got up to use the restroom and I was literally shaking with cold. It is not cold here! In the high 80's yesterday. Our air conditioning and ceiling fan were on but that's our normal routine. I just want to know if this is from the Level 8 Flare??

Thank you! I was not aware of the fever til I read about on this site. I will start checking my temp when I'm flaring in the future. When that happened I believe I was taking the hydrocodone/acetaminophen pain pills so I did have some Tylenol in me. It was literally all I could do to make myself get up to use the restroom. My temp gun was in the dining room and I hurried back to get in bed as quickly as my little useless hands would cover my shaking bones & chattering teeth! Good Grief, I sound pathetic! Lol! Well, I was!
Cindi when I'm in a flare I will get really cold. Sometimes low grade fever which adds to coldness.
Could you possibly have had a fever? I always shiver when I feverish
I did not think to take my temperature but I sure will in the future! Thanks for that idea Carol! I'll get the hang of this .... eventually.... maybe! Lol
Oh WOW same thing is happening to me! In the 29 years of having RA this has never happened. It’s been hot in the 90s here in NC our AC & ceiling fans have always been set to the same temperature and I’m in sweats and socks and freezing. So crazy to have to go outside to warm up would never have imagined this one.
