What Causes A Constant Feeling Of Hotness, Brittle Nails, Migraines And Dry Skin?

I am constantly hot, even when others are cool or comfortable. When you touch my face, it feels hot, my hands are always warm. I have gained 40 pounds in the past 6 months. I feel tired, downright exhausted all the time. I have trouble sleeping at least 50% of the time. I have Migraines frequently, but even when I don t have a full blown Migraine I have a head ache most of the time. My skin is extremely dry. My nails are brittle. I have always suffered from chronic constipation. I have had the typical Thyroid tests (blood test), but it always comes back within normal range. This being hot all the time is terrible to live with. If I do any kind of exercise or strenuous work I get so hot that I can barely stand it and my face gets bright red. Even after a cool or cold shower, it takes hours for me to cool down to normal, which is still hot for me. I always get a Migraine any time I do anything strenuos and the hotter I get the worse my Migraine becomes.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and from the history given here I could say that when the thyroid function test turned unremarkable then no need to worry about this, and this could be your functional condition anxiety and depression could be the cause of this, you have not mentioned your age and gender here, else I would have think about differential possibilities, have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
