for the past month I notice and every one around me notice it as well is that I smell like burning wood. but thats not all my skin is hot like I just came from out of the hot summer sun I checked my tempeture just a few moments ago it was 100DegF i went to the docter he said it was from being outside to long and nothing more i told him its not that he just laughed about it. Yesturday I held on to an ice cube to see if i'm really hot it melted in seconds also I been getting nose bleeds more. whats wierd is that I enjoy the smell sometimes the smell is like a fire place. I drink lots of water because I'm sweating alot now

    Your symptoms would make more sense to a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine than to a regular Doctor.
    The smell you describe is what a Chinese doctor would call "scorched" and the body heat and nose-bleeds would be defined as "Full Heat in the Blood"
    Acupuncture or a course of Chinese herbs would most likely be very effective for your condition.

    I think it's normal. It's the "outside" smell and I'm pretty sure I know what you're talking about. It's fucking weird. My cat smells like that when he goes back in the house, haha.

    There is no such thing as a wood enzyme in the blood. Your story is made up. Why do people do that? So fricking lame

    Hmmmm, I'm going to step up and confess that last year I had a very similar situation. I would often smell smoke, like burning wood smoke 24/7 no matter where I went. Oddly though no body else said they smelled it, but I really didnt ask. I too sweat a lot, and very easily lately and my skin feels hot.
