Myself, my wife and the small goup of people I know who show electrical or chemical sensitivities or have uncoventional (for want of a better word) health issues, all have a lower than normal temperature. I recently had contact from a lady with severe electrosensitivity and on enquiry she also had a low temperature (35 degrees). We should all have have hypothermia! This is most certainly not the case in these people.
I would be most interested to see if anyone else has similar low temperature, probably 1 to 2 degrees below normal. |

When i was first going through early days of not knowing i was giving myself ES through Electricity wifi and mobiles by my bed, my body temp was i imagine very high as i was sweating every night always hot.
Since i know longer put myself in this environment i no longer have a Temperature problem. My body seems to cope much better.

Strangely, overheating can often be a sign of low core temperature. In a warm environment the body tries to to maintain the core temperature and cool down by releasing heat to the skin and extremities. Throwing off the bedclothes, loosening or removing clothes etc then allows this heat to escape. Someone with a low core temperature will actually heat up more in a warm environment than someone with normal temperature.
The only way to actually know is to measure body temperature, maybe 2 or 3 times throughout the day. |

Hi Charles,
Myself and a number of other ES/MCS people also noted the same thing, 4 of the people had poor temperature control typically noticing the cold more than normal and one was always hot. We did some initial testing discussed below and then further biomedical testing. Two had adrenal fatigue, one end stage adrenal fatigue, one as hypothyroid with low free t4 and one was hyperthyroid. So an interesting set of metabolic illnesses in a small group of people.
There is a fairly reliable process that uses waking temperature to identify the cause of metabolic illness. The key aspects are uniformly low temps varying very slightly from day to day are related to thyroid issues, whereas low but quite variable temps are caused by adrenal issues. There is much more details and example temperature graphs:

For temp monitoring you can either use basal thermometers, either digital (maybe not ok for ES) of alcohol thermometers.
The are biomedical tests that can confirm thyroid and/or adrenal functions, but the temp monitoring is inexpensive for initial assessment and a good way to monitor progress during treatment.
God luck,
Rod
