Hey delancey... I know this is a bit late. Ask your doctor to listen to your heart to see if you have a murmur. If so, he needs to send you for an echocardiogram to rule out mitral valve prolapse. Intolerance to hot or cold substances may be a sign of this. (though when I read that somewhere, I think the hot or cold substance intolerance came about when it was ingested). Thought this might help.
