Is being very cold normal for a new post-op?

I'm 4 weeks post-op and have noticed that I have a tough time staying warm. I do have thyroid issues and know intolerance to cold can be a symptom. However, I do not have any of the other symptoms that go along with hypothyroidism. I had a "cold issue" prior to surgery, but this seems much worse. My labs prior to surgery were normal. Would appreciate any advice. I am having my 1 month follow-up with my surgeon in the morning and will mention it to him. Thanks so much for all of the support you all give (even when you don't realize it). Beth
