A member asked:

Always cold, but friends use me as their personal heater? why is my skin always warm, but im cold? this is an everyday thing. (sometimes im warm too.)

Possibilities: If your medical practitioner agrees, have a thyroid blood test and one for anemia also. It may not be a treatable problem. It sounds like you have a good attitude about it, but check the basics.
