Feeling cold all the time

Anyone else feeling cold all the time after treatment?
Had surgery and radiotherapy  last year & started Letrozole in June. Had a few side effects from the Letrozole - occasional hot flush, big weight gain, occasional trouble sleeping (but that could be because my brain comes up with plot ideas as I'm an author...lol), diarrhea. Continual fatigue since radiotherapy.
Anyway now it's autumn and although the temps are around 20 I'm feeling cold all the time. Rugged up, sit wrapped in a blanket, etc. I simply cannot get warm.
Never used to feel this cold until the temps were in the low single digits...lol
  • I need to wash my electric lap blanket but I don't know if they can go in the washine machine or if need to take it to the dry cleaners.
  • @Locksley if you have one that you can pull off the cord you can wash it. Most have washing direction on the attached tag.
  • WOOHOO!   Found it!! No more heater!!!  ;) 

    @Locksley - or maybe just hand wash it & leave the cord plug bit 'out' of the water?
