Running heat = sore throat?

beachybride10

I lived in CA the past 4 winters and never once turned on the heat. I was a lucky lucky girl.

Anyways, our heat is running a lot just to keep it above 60 degrees in here during the day and 62 at night. I keep waking up with really bad sore throats. I think from the heat?

Will I get used to it? Is there anything I can do to help? Maybe a humidifier?

TIA!

. I think it's from the dry heat. This happens to me sometimes. I think a humidifier would help. Maybe I should get one too. My face and lips are already very dry from it. Or maybe your throat hurts because your house is like the Antartic. 62? I'm freezing if my house is below 72.

I still live in California and I have to turn the heat on during the winter!!!  I like to keep it right around 72 as well.  (Okay....the hubby does). 

I think a humidifier would definitely help with the dry throat.  Try it out....no harm, no foul.

I've tried to reply a bunch and the nest gods are not fans of me right now... if this goes through I'll type out my response again.

 Same here!  I'm totally regretting not adding a humidifier to our furnace when we replaced it in Feb
