Hi,
The excess cold feeling could be due to a low metabolic rate secondary to hypothyroidism.
I suggests you investigate by CBC and serum TSH estimation for primary workup.
If TSH high than treatment for hypothyroidism needs to be done. Kindly revert back with reports once done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
