It is natural to feel the cold more. You've had major surgery. This invasion of your insides does make one more vulnerable to the cold.
My surgery was not quite as much a biggie as yours was - but, I, too, have noticed a reduced ability to tolerate the cold. I wear a hoody over my black sweatshirt.. so, I am warmer... but I cannot turn the heat back to 50 when I go to bed anymore.... this would make the apartment 55 - 56 degrees at night, but I cannot tolerate that for now.
This is inspite of the fact that I have a nice warm comforter, and two extra bedspreads on my bed.
Thus, I can only turn the heat back to 59 or 60 now.. sigh.
I suspect that this new found inability to tolerate the cold as well is indeed temporary.
As for the snow.. it is still too soon for me to shovel, so I'll have to use the snowblower, too.
