Does everyone know about Reynaud's syndrome?

It is poor circulation in fingertips and toes, extremities.

For me it's in my fingertips.
They turn white, cold and numb.

Many people who have Ehlers Danlos, EDS, also experience this.

Look it up if you get white, icy fingertips that take a long time to warm up.

Very important to WEAR GLOVES when it's chilly.

Extended loss of circulation can lead to permanent damage.

@Moonbeam Yes, I have Reynauds!

We're just heading into winter here in Australia so that means I am going to be wearing many layers for the duration!

But as someone else has said, my hands and feet will still be cold inside gloves, etc.

Last year I discovered something everyone else probably knew about decades ago, but it has changed my life and made me warm!

Electric blankets & throws! If you're sitting on the sofa you have an electric throw, if you're in bed you will be toasted! πŸ›οΈ πŸ˜„

@autisticbookclub @Moonbeam Same. My hands and feet do NOT get warm until something physically warms them. I could wear socks for hours and still have cold feet until I actually put them in a hot bath, etc. It’s ridiculous.
