Is your heating pad being regulated by a thermostat? It sounds like your heating pad is too hot. How are you measuring temperatures? Do you have a probed thermometer?

I also believe its your heat pad. Have you been using the same one for the last past 12 years?? If so it is most definitely time to replace that and pick up a new one. Come back and let us know what the temps are reading.
