Sometimes if I get really cold, can be just getting up on a winter morning, I can start sneezing, runny nose, stuffy head etc and it will get worse, sometimes I get over it in 24 hours, sometimes when I get warm. Usually I can take something like Claritin and be ok after that. I am a small person, only 100lbs and 5'2" tall, have always been like that, weight rarely changes, 46yrs old, I think I feel the cold more because I am slim. Anybody ever heard of a cold allergy?

Well as an Australian to an Australian, our weather has changed dramatically... Winter also seems to have some spring and autumn in it and summer is confusing? lol... This has been happening as changes go for a few years now, almost Darwin weather? Sunny but rains?
I think pollen is still very much there, therefore, and you suffer from hayfever, i sneezed today? It's winter...
I am 44, and as far as feeling cold goes, i'm 63kilo's cant remember that in pounds, 5 7 and a half, so size 10, slim... I feel the cold...
I was thinking yesterday how many times i said "i'm cold" and the heater was on, to the gentleman i was seeing and he looked at me dumbfounded, mind you he's very broad. He was wearing a T-Shirt and i'm in the bedroom grabbing a dressing gown... lol..
Australia, got to love it though hey...
