Heart palpitations and extreme cold

Hey there lovely people,

I am looking for answers from those more experienced than me......I have been a vegetarian for almost a year now (yay) and I have noticed that lately I am getting heart palpitations-to the point that I wake up at night- and am so very cold all the time-I wear three layers to bed and am STILL cold! I take Red iron, b12, b6 and recently have added magnesium. I am low in iron and vitamin d. Could this cause the heart palpitations? I also get muscle twitches and every bone cracks! I have looked on the internet for possible causes but my head spins at the number of things it could be related to. Could it be a calcium deficiency? Help-so confused!!

Hi how are you? It sounds like it could be a vitamin problem. It looks like you have gotten a blood test done. Is your b12 level okay because I have a friend who is b12 deficient and she is cold all the time, so it could have a connection to that or not. The muscle problems could be associated to the lack of vitamin d. I started taking a vitamin d supplement with calcium. Did you talk to a doctor to see what they thought?

I would go for a blood test and specifically ask them to test your thyroid function. I have recently been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and all of those symptoms appeared. The severe cold is a very specific symptom which fits, but the bone cracks and muscle twitches are indicators too. With so many and such wide-ranging symptoms, I would definitely go to the doctor as soon as you can.
