Feeling cold

[Nurse Julie]

Last year Primark sold all in one fleece pyjamas complete with feet for about £10
I have got 2 pairs a dalmation pair with a hood that has even got ears (I chased my son around the house barking while he was laughing so much he kept falling over LOL)and a more sedate red pair with a reindeer motif

Keep your eyes open cos they were out as soon as they went on the shelves last year
Oh and they come up massive the small size fitted me at a size 16

Hmm, all in one suit with feet sounds great Lamornamiss BUT (hope you don't mind me asking) what happens if you want a wee in the night do you have to take the whole thing off?

That is the only drawback but I find wearing a t-shirt or vest underneath works the best

Don't know if you are pre or post op but since I had my op I don't need to get up in the night for a wee

The vest/t shirt sounds like a good idea - I never thought about that!
I am 5 weeks post op on Tuesday and I do get up occasionally in the night (although not every night) but really depends on how much fluid I consume prior to going to bed. If I drink an hour or so before I go to bed I do get up in the night...but what can you do when you are thirsty!

I think they do but these sleepsuits are massive go and try one first. Like I said earlier I was a size 16/18 and the small ones fitted me with room to spare
The also do these for men I don't know if they come up even bigger

Men's go up to XL. My 18 yr old sons about 5'8" & wears a small which on his frame is roomy.

I went to Primark in Manchester yesterday and bought my sleep suit for £10.
I opted for a footless and hoodless one as the others were very, very long and I don't think my feet would have reached the foot bit as I'm a 'shortie'
They had lots of choices, e.g cow, devil as well as plain style ones if any of you are interested in getting one.
I was warm as toast last night.....now thinking I should have got two!!

Hello again (sorry if I'm driving you all potty with questions )

I am a woman of a certain age.....!
.....and for the past couple of years I have been roasting hot all the time but this past week I have been bloomin freezing, so much so that I have had the central heating on and my electric blanket too. Today for work I had to hunt out my thick woolly tights and my feet were still freezing.
Is this normal after surgery? Has anyone else felt like this? Will I eventually return to my 'hottie' state? :wave_cry:

Been like that since surgery in January (sleeve) but I have felt cold easily for years due to underactive thyroid anyway guess its just got worse as I m losing my insulation lol.

I am so excited that I get colder now!! I used to just sit there and sweat with everything I would do. It was embarrassing. I wouldn't go anywhere that didn't have a powerful air conditioner. And now I can wear pants and not sweat one bit!!! It's a good feeling
