I got 3 layers on inside and my hands are still chilled and my feet bounce from being cold to being sweaty so I'm constantly taking my socks on and off. I was sitting in my office at work with my coat and jacket on for 3 hours yesterday before I got back up to a comfortable temperature after being outside. Also everything just fucking hurts all the time. Fuck this shit. I don't have issues like this in summer.

It kinda sounds like you might need to see a doctor about that.

Wtf is a doctor going to do. It's been this way my entire life.

I don't know, I'm not a doctor. But if it takes 3 hours in a jacket indoors to get warm, there's potentially an issue going on. Temperature regulation issues could be nothing, or they could be a symptom of an underlying issue.

My wife is like that and it's probably the neuropathy from the lupus that no one but her eye doctor believes she has (despite her father and his mother dying from it). Like, if it's below 78F, she has a jacket on.

So just because it has been that way your whole life, without a doctor looking into why, it is an unsolvable problem...? All you've said just screams "I want to have this problem because it's something to complain about".
Imagine if a person has had a limp their whole life, they complain about it and other people say "it shouldn't be like that, it's not normal and you should get it looked at" and their reply is what you said. See how fucking dumb that is? That's you.

So, say it is some medical issue where my body doesn't regulate temperature properly, what will they actually be able to do? Make me spend $1000s on diagnostic tests? Put me on an expensive medication that I have to take forever? I live in America, our healthcare is a joke and I'm not going to waste my money on something that isn't actively killing me. So yeah I'm going to complain.
