Q: giving off excessive body heat

Hi. for about 3 months now i noticed my grilfreind gives off EXCESSIVE body heat. if i stand by her i can feel alot of heat coming off of her.

when you touch her skin she feels really really warm like she has a fever but she does not. her temp is 98.6.

it's kinda hard sleeping at night in bed with her because of all the heat she gives off. also when she is in the room the room gets hotter i notice and i need to turn the AC on. but when she is gone i just leave the fan on all day.

when she sits down on the bed or something and gets up..if you feel the spot where she was sitting/laying it's VERY warm. almost like a heating pad was on the bed.


what could the problem be? she is not preg and she tells me she does not feel that hot.

it's not just me who feels it. my freind touched her shoulder once and she asked why she is burning up.

Hmmm. My husband has the same condition. It might be hormonal...but if it doesnt' bother her there might not be a problem. What's her base body temperature?

My sister's boyfriend has this same problem. I have always wondered what causes it. She can't even sleep next to him because of it. Not much info on the internet from what I've seen.

Excessive body heat
My husband has the same thing. I wish I could find out what it is...I can't even sleep next to him. It overheats me. He is NOT sweating either.

Re: Excessive body heat
I was one of these human furnaces for as long as I can remember. This past January, I learnt (much to my surprise) that I had caffeine & sugar intolerances. I excluded all caffeine sources and un-natural sugar sources; and the excessive body heat went away. My total health has improved drastically since... I just wish I had learnt it about 25 years ago. Good luck!
