Cold is my enemy too! At 72 degrees (F) I am fairly comfortable and then the warmer it is from there, the better I feel. Wish I could move south. What about this—-try sleeping with a winter hat on. Sounds silly, but I recently tried this at home when working at my desk. The longer I sit the colder I get..to a point when I am just in icy cold burning pain. I take my temp and it will be between 96.5-97.5, but never 98.6. So Something is going on there! After trying layers and electric blankets, I got mad and grabbed a winter hat for the morning. It actually helped! My hair goes flat, but at least I’m more comfortable. I would try it and see how you feel. I didn’t realize how much heat you lose through the top of your head!
