Is it common to have temperature regulation problems post lipo?

tilnih
I had lipo on my inner/outer thighs 9 days ago taking 1700ccs of fat. I’m pear shaped, 5’7”, and my presurgury wt was a muscular 142lbs (I can squat my body weight). Since then I’ve had problems regulating my body temp. I feel cold all the time even when I’m sweating. My temps were 96.9-97.5 over the last 2 days. Is this due to loss of fat and trauma from surgery? I’ve never read about anyone having this experience. Is it common? Will it resolves over time?
