PC,
I know that heat. You could cook an egg on the top of my head sometimes. I'm a furnace. I take cold showers every day.
I've been helped by using a cooling diet or "pitta pacifying" in ayurvedic terms. This is an ancient medical science out of India. Certain foods are heating, cooling, wet, dry, etc... and through diet you can alter the body's thermostat.
Activities can be "heating" too. Anything that excites or agitates (like the admin board) is heating and increases firey emotions. Calming the mind is always cooling. Meditation, breathing exercises, right-brain stuff and anything relaxing.
hope you feel better soon.
