permanent temperature

Hi Rozitka, Im hot all the winter, i cant wear hot clothes i go out with very light clothes.
My doc once said me an explanation for this.
In thal major patients еrythrocytes    dies early and this make extra enerjy in our bodies.
I dont know if i explain it right.    

Hi Tedi,

That is the correct explanation of why thals tend to feel hot. The break down of red blood cells, hemolysis does release more heat into the body.

Yes, I was told the same and that is why I stop worrying about my temp around 37.  Btw it is interesting that usually in the middle of the day I have this temp and when I go to bed and check it is normal - below 37. so, since I don't have any other problems, I will not deal with that  temperature anymore )

Yes during the day its higher, even sometimes i have something like hot waves.

hi rozitka,
my boys are the same i think their tempreture maintains at the same level (36-37).
when they were younger their pillows used to be really wet by morning but not so much now. and with the beginning of their transfusion their temps are usually that high, also throughout as the nurses keep checking every half hour.  i feel this is normal for them.

Owh guys, you make me smile and laugh hard. It's funny - I believe. I have it ALWAYS cold. No matter it's winter or summer +30 Celcius dore is brrrrrr-ing. I'll ask my pk def group if there are others like me. It might be difference. I do agree with the bm thing. When my blood counts were dropping very fast around May I also had a warmly high temp.
I hope they found the cause Rozitka. Feeling warm is no fun. Btw where do you live? Where you the person from East-Europe? :S

Dore,
I stop checking my temperature so I don't looking for any causes.
I am from Bulgaria .

Yes, I thought you were from Bulgaria. I want to vist a friend in Romania with someone else. Dunno where in B you live or where Sofia lays exactly but those countries aren't too far from each other. They are big from themselves. I might send you a message with more info about that.
Anyway, weren't there a young boys twin who underwent a BMT in Bulgaria? how are they doing? Do you know smth about them or haven't you had any update?

Warm wishes, Dore
ps let we know of I can do something for you. I have had contact addresses of Romanian organistaion in the past. The friend is a healthy person so he didn't see the sense to get them again for me. Why I need it. I would like to know how the treatment is in those countries. Take care xx

I MYSELF have body temperatur more than 37' C almost .... everything is normal but yet my temperature is higher than other .... my doctor said that its may be cuz of fast break down of Hb in thalsemia however she said  she wud discuss this with other thal specialists .... but for time being its considered normal

I'm a thal minor, but my temperature is also always slightly higher. Am always warm and every one who hugs me always asks if i have a fever.

I am prone to mild infections -  i feel i have one or the other all the time, even though I am not always aware of it.

Another reason could be the high metabolic rate, if i lie still in bed for few days without much activity, i feel cooler. But the usual days of activities, i feel I burn up fast. The more tired I am, the warmer I feel. To a limit, of course, after which i have to take rest or I will pass out.  :-)

Try measuring your temperature, after a long period of total rest.

Symptoms
Many people who are infected with the hepatitis C do not have symptoms.

If the infection has been present for many years, the liver may be permanently scarred, a condition called cirrhosis. In many cases, there may be no symptoms of the disease until cirrhosis has developed.

The following symptoms could occur with hepatitis C infection:

Abdominal pain (right upper abdomen)
Ascites
Bleeding varices (dilated veins in the esophagus)
Dark urine
Fatigue
Generalized itching
Jaundice
Loss of appetite
Low-grade fever
Nausea
Pale or clay-colored stools
Vomiting

i red it  somewhere so i  m posting it here ... I MYSELF had body temperatur more than 37' C almost all the time when my Ferritin was ver high n liver condition was poor (in comparison with my present liver condition) ...  dont worry guyz, i bet that ur liver is in far much better condition than mine was ....   i dont know that it was bcoze of high ferritin or hep-c or  liver ....  but i know that my liver is still not super fine , and i still have Hep-B n Hep-C  but onething thst is in controle  is my Ferritin level .. .so , there is  a huge chance that Ferritin could b a reason behindthis low grade feever ....

Umair as side note, do you know something about inflamned liver? (your posts let me suggest to post this question here)
I have a friend who runs always a lil fever. She says she feels always hot and never cold (not even when it's time for a transfusion).
The strange things of human bodies, huh?

In the early stage of any liver disease, the liver may become inflamed. It may become tender and enlarged. Inflammation shows that the human body is trying to fight an infection or heal an injury. But if the inflammation continues over time, it can start to hurt the liver permanently.

When most other parts of the body become inflamed, you can feel it – the area becomes hot and painful. But an inflamed liver may cause no discomfort at all.

If the liver disease is diagnosed and treated successfully at this stage, the inflammation may go away.

Dore,
i hope i answered your question , but i m not sure .. so , i m still searching for more details ....
