[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 1672800"] I find it difficult to get any blood from my fingers if they are cold. I agree with [USER=429321]@Jenniewren1958[/USER]: try to warm them before pricking. Unfortunately, you have to be careful not to warm them too fast as this may cause chill blains. I try to warm mine under a warm tap or around a cup of tea. May also be worth checking why your hands are so cold first thing in the morning as it may be a sign of circulation problems. For me, it is Raynaud’s but this comes with white fingers as well as cold ones. [/QUOTE]
