[QUOTE="Maggieshauna, post: 1660788, member: 269195"] Hi Sonnyb2 I had been suffering from cold hands and feet for some time (so cold they were like wet fish! ) .I mentioned this at a GP appointment and my GP ran blood tests and discovered I have an under active thyroid...I did have other symptoms like brain fog and dry skin, brittle hair and nails. I was told that it’s another Autoimmun condition...I have others vitiligo and psoriasis. On the whole I keep very well and it hasn’t stopped me doing anything...with five young grandchildren I don’t want to miss anything. I haven’t started treatment for the thyroid as I was only given the diagnosis on Christmas Eve and will see my GP in 2 days time to discuss treatment. So mention your cold hands to your GP if it was to turn out to be your thyroid the treatment for an under active thyroid is just taking tablets and finding the right balance and adjusting the dose as needed (from my GP). Hope you get some help as cold hands make it very difficult to test your BG I have found...and get some nice warm gloves! Good luck!!! [/QUOTE]
