    sunny here but my fingers still feel so cold... dont understand why my hands and feet always cold!

    When it's really cold, do you find your hands/feet are more then just cold they start to hurt as well? Or turn a funny colour? (Anything from blue/purple to red splodges?)

    I'm not a doctor by the way, just wondering if you have the same condition I do...

    Well I can tell you that it's not Raynaud's then :)

    Maybe try upping your exercise a bit & see if there's any change, or if you're worried just book an appointment with your GP x

  • Thankyou for posting this thread pixiechick99
    I have worked all morning wiv lady wiv multiple sclerosis as a support worker, feel very glad wiv what we've achieved but also glad for me its the weekend! Heard fom the company I work for that I have a tax rebate coming - happy days except it will all go towards debts rather than treats - hey ho! I ran those debts up in the first place so no point in going into regret mode.
    Really glad I'm doing this job, making a difference to people's lives - it certainly takes my mind off the intense depression I felt as a single parent wiv glandular fever.
    My husband left me when I got depressed and ran off with the social worker that ran the 'carer' groups he was attending.

    Hi everyone.
    I`m a bit late posting today as it should have been a day off work but i picked up an extra shift this morning so today I have:

    Worked an extra 4.25 paid hours.:D
    Applied and been accepted for a 0% credit card so I can balance transfer and save money on interest.:D
    1 load of washing done and out on line.
    NSD!:D
    Checked for surveys but nothing screened in.:(
    Sold small 99p item on Ebay, paid for and packed.

    Still to do:
    Dogs for decent walk past a post box to post above Ebay parcel.
    Enjoy the last of todays sunshine.
    Tea from the chippy an BF pays as it`s his Friday treat.:D
    Try and do some college work.:eek:

    I would love to say i`m glad it`s the weekend but i`m on split shifts both Sat and Sun so will be working and sleeping.:( However i`ve most of next week off on enforced holidays so can be productive then.
    Have a good weekend everyone, i`ll be back on Monday.
