Ice Cold Feet And Hands, Rest Of Body Hot. Underlying Cause?

Ive been feeling unwell the past few weeks.. I'm 24, and female. My feet and hands will be ice cold, and I personally will be freezing, but the rest of my body is extremely hot to touch..my boyfriend couldn't even lay next to me, he said I was radiating. Lol this mainly happens once I start to get ready for bed.. what could this mean?
