What Is The Reason For Feeling Hot Even When It Is Just Warm Outside ?

Thanks for posting your query.
Hot flushes is generally caused by hormonal imbalance. In men it is usually caused by low testosterone. Prostate causes and cancer therapy decreases the amount of testosterone in the system because testosterone can fuel tumors.
In your case the low testosterone may be responsible for the hot flushes which you are describing as feeling warm. The typical male testosterone level is between 250ng/dl to 850 ng/dl. Although it’s normal for testosterone levels to drop as men age, low testosterone can cause loss of libido, erectile dysfunction, mood problems, fatigue, and sleep disturbances.
I suggest you to follow up with your doctor and take the treatment for low testosterone regularly. Also get evaluated your PSA levels and get a thyroid evaluation test (for hyperthyroidism) done.

Thanks for writing back to me.
It is true that low testosterone can also cause fatigue but the three drugs that you are taking i.e. Restoril, lorazepam and Celexa also have fatigue as their side effects and sometimes it can be found in 5 % population.
Talk to your doctor and get the dose of these drugs monitored. This may help with fatigue.
